SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

API contracts often drift between consumers and providers, leading to breaking changes that slow delivery and degrade reliability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pact-based consumer-driven contract testing to validate interactions
  • OpenAPI contract validation and provider verification
  • CI-ready workflows and clear breaking-change detection

Quick Start

Install and run your first consumer-provider contract test by wiring Pact with your OpenAPI spec and executing the test suite.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prevent breaking changes in API contracts between microservices?

Yes, you can validate OpenAPI contracts by applying provider verification and consumer-driven contract testing to detect breaking API changes and ensure microservice interactions remain stable across updates.

How does consumer-driven contract testing work with Pact?

Consumer-driven contract testing with Pact works by having consumers define expected API interactions, generating a pact file, and verifying that the provider satisfies these contracts to prevent integration failures.

Can I integrate Pact contract testing into my CI-CD pipeline?

You can integrate Pact contract testing into your CI-CD pipeline to automate breaking-change detection and provider verification, ensuring API contracts are validated continuously during microservice delivery.

What is the best way to wire Pact with an OpenAPI spec for contract testing?

The best way to wire Pact with an OpenAPI spec is by configuring your consumer tests to generate Pact files and executing provider verification against your OpenAPI spec within your test suite.

Why does API contract drift occur between providers and consumers?

API contract drift occurs when providers and consumers update independently without validation, leading to breaking changes that degrade reliability, which consumer-driven contract testing identifies early.
