   So what I have in mind is that the `def setUpClass` automatically `terraform init`s the infra located in `tests/providers/*/infrastructure` for a file named as the example dag file and should end with `.tf` **if exists**
   
   What we could also do would be only running the terraform init for`tests/providers/*/infrastructure` once for all example dags when the providers system flag is used `--system amazon`.
   
   > Is creating a single GCS bucket worth adding terraform?
   
   @turbaszek in my opinion we should do it consistenly for all example_dags. Do you think it would be slow? Or what is your concern?
   Under the hood terraform is also using the cli's we use to create resources for aws and google, right? So why not do it safely and more manageable using terraform? I think the biggest plus is that the infra automatically gets destroyed so we do not accidently let something exists longer as the test needs it.
