PactJS Contract Testing Example

An example test framework using Pact-js to validate contract testing between consumer and provider. The application that we are testing is a simple movies API which returns a list of movies.

Running the Movies API locally

Install dependencies npm i

Run the movies API npm run start:provider

Running the tests

I am using Pactflow as my broker. To use Pactflow , register for their free developer plan and export your Pactflow Broker URL and API token:

export PACT_BROKER_URL=<PACT_BROKER_URL here>
export PACT_API_TOKEN=<API_TOKEN here>

Run the consumer tests: npm run test:consumer

Publish the contract to your pact broker: npm run publish:pact

Run the provider tests npm run test:provider
