Brew

Note that is a bit complicated to switch between terraform version when Terraform is installed with brew. For that reason, if you need to often switch between version and return back to a specific version, install Terraform manually as shown below in "Manual Installation".

brew install terraform

Install a specific version

Follow the procedure described here, adjusted for terraform:

Install a Specific Version with brew
