It would be nice to support the new amazonlinux docker container.

Here's my current workaround:

Any news on this?

This works for me... you have to specific platform: rhel

---
verifier:
  name: inspec
  format: <%= ENV['CI'] ? 'junit' : 'cli' %>
  <% if ENV['CI'] %>
  output: "test-reports/%{platform}_%{suite}_inspec.xml"
  <% end %>

driver:
  name: docker
  use_sudo: false
  privileged: true
  forward: 80
  driver_config:
    ssl_verify_mode: ":verify_none"

provisioner:
  name: chef_zero
  always_update_cookbooks: true
  require_chef_omnibus: 12.19.36

platforms:
  - name: amazon-docker
    driver_config:
      image: amazonlinux:latest
      platform: rhel

suites:
  - name: default
    run_list:
      - recipe[example_serverspec_to_inspec::default]
    attributes:

T.K. will determine the image to use if you specify the name like the following.

platforms:
  - name: amazonlinux-2017.09
    driver_config:
      platform: rhel

Closing issue as amazonlinux image support was added in version 2.9.0.
