pact-jvm-consumer-junit5
========================
JUnit 5 support for Pact consumer tests
## Dependency
The library is available on maven central using:
* group-id = `au.com.dius`
* artifact-id = `pact-jvm-consumer-junit5`
* version-id = `4.0.x`
## Usage
### 1. Add the Pact consumer test extension to the test class.
To write Pact consumer tests with JUnit 5, you need to add `@ExtendWith(PactConsumerTestExt)` to your test class. This
replaces the `PactRunner` used for JUnit 4 tests. The rest of the test follows a similar pattern as for JUnit 4 tests.
```java
@ExtendWith(PactConsumerTestExt.class)
class ExampleJavaConsumerPactTest {
```
### 2. create a method annotated with `@Pact` that returns the interactions for the test
For each test (as with JUnit 4), you need to define a method annotated with the `@Pact` annotation that returns the
interactions for the test.
```java
@Pact(provider="ArticlesProvider", consumer="test_consumer")
public RequestResponsePact createPact(PactDslWithProvider builder) {
return builder
.given("test state")
.uponReceiving("ExampleJavaConsumerPactTest test interaction")
.path("/articles.json")
.method("GET")
.willRespondWith()
.status(200)
.body("{\"responsetest\": true}")
.toPact();
}
```
### 3. Link the mock server with the interactions for the test with `@PactTestFor`
Then the final step is to use the `@PactTestFor` annotation to tell the Pact extension how to setup the Pact test. You
can either put this annotation on the test class, or on the test method. For examples see
[ArticlesTest](src/test/java/au/com/dius/pact/consumer/junit5/ArticlesTest.java) and
[MultiTest](src/test/groovy/au/com/dius/pact/consumer/junit5/MultiTest.groovy).
The `@PactTestFor` annotation allows you to control the mock server in the same way as the JUnit 4 `PactProviderRule`. It
allows you to set the hostname to bind to (default is `localhost`) and the port (default is to use a random port). You
can also set the Pact specification version to use (default is V3).
```java
@ExtendWith(PactConsumerTestExt.class)
@PactTestFor(providerName = "ArticlesProvider")
public class ExampleJavaConsumerPactTest {
```
**NOTE on the hostname**: The mock server runs in the same JVM as the test, so the only valid values for hostname are:
| hostname | result |
| -------- | ------ |
| `localhost` | binds to the address that localhost points to (normally the loopback adapter) |
| `127.0.0.1` or `::1` | binds to the loopback adapter |
| host name | binds to the default interface that the host machines DNS name resolves to |
| `0.0.0.0` or `::` | binds to the all interfaces on the host machine |
#### Matching the interactions by provider name
If you set the `providerName` on the `@PactTestFor` annotation, then the first method with a `@Pact` annotation with the
same provider name will be used. See [ArticlesTest](src/test/java/au/com/dius/pact/consumer/junit5/ArticlesTest.java) for
an example.
#### Matching the interactions by method name
If you set the `pactMethod` on the `@PactTestFor` annotation, then the method with the provided name will be used (it still
needs a `@Pact` annotation). See [MultiTest](src/test/groovy/au/com/dius/pact/consumer/junit5/MultiTest.groovy) for an example.
### Injecting the mock server into the test
You can get the mock server injected into the test method by adding a `MockServer` parameter to the test method.
```java
@Test
void test(MockServer mockServer) throws IOException {
HttpResponse httpResponse = Request.Get(mockServer.getUrl() + "/articles.json").execute().returnResponse();
assertThat(httpResponse.getStatusLine().getStatusCode(), is(equalTo(200)));
}
```
This helps with getting the base URL of the mock server, especially when a random port is used.
## Changing the directory pact files are written to
By default, pact files are written to `target/pacts` (or `build/pacts` if you use Gradle), but this can be overwritten with the `pact.rootDir` system property.
This property needs to be set on the test JVM as most build tools will fork a new JVM to run the tests.
For Gradle, add this to your build.gradle:
```groovy
test {
systemProperties['pact.rootDir'] = "$buildDir/custom-pacts-directory"
}
```
For maven, use the systemPropertyVariables configuration:
```xml
<project>
[...]
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.18</version>
<configuration>
<systemPropertyVariables>
<pact.rootDir>some/other/directory</pact.rootDir>
<buildDirectory>${project.basedir}/target</buildDirectory>
[...]
</systemPropertyVariables>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
[...]
</project>
```
For SBT:
```scala
fork in Test := true,
javaOptions in Test := Seq("-Dpact.rootDir=some/other/directory")
```
### Using `@PactFolder` annotation
You can override the directory the pacts are written in a test by adding the `@PactFolder` annotation to the test
class.
## Forcing pact files to be overwritten (3.6.5+)
By default, when the pact file is written, it will be merged with any existing pact file. To force the file to be
overwritten, set the Java system property `pact.writer.overwrite` to `true`.
## Unsupported
The current implementation does not support tests with multiple providers. This will be added in a later release.
# Having values injected from provider state callbacks (3.6.11+)
You can have values from the provider state callbacks be injected into most places (paths, query parameters, headers,
bodies, etc.). This works by using the V3 spec generators with provider state callbacks that return values. One example
of where this would be useful is API calls that require an ID which would be auto-generated by the database on the
provider side, so there is no way to know what the ID would be beforehand.
The following DSL methods all you to set an expression that will be parsed with the values returned from the provider states:
For JSON bodies, use `valueFromProviderState`.<br/>
For headers, use `headerFromProviderState`.<br/>
For query parameters, use `queryParameterFromProviderState`.<br/>
For paths, use `pathFromProviderState`.
For example, assume that an API call is made to get the details of a user by ID. A provider state can be defined that
specifies that the user must be exist, but the ID will be created when the user is created. So we can then define an
expression for the path where the ID will be replaced with the value returned from the provider state callback.
```java
.pathFromProviderState("/api/users/au.com.dius:pact-jvm-consumer-junit5:jar:4.0.10", "/api/users/100")
```
You can also just use the key instead of an expression:
```java
.valueFromProviderState('userId', 'userId', 100) // will look value using userId as the key
```
There are no modules declared in this project.
pact-jvm
JVM implementation of the consumer driven contract library pact.
From the Ruby Pact website:
Define a pact between service consumers and providers, enabling "consumer driven contract" testing.
Pact provides an RSpec DSL for service consumers to define the HTTP requests they will make to a service provider and the HTTP responses they expect back. These expectations are used in the consumers specs to provide a mock service provider. The interactions are recorded, and played back in the service provider specs to ensure the service provider actually does provide the response the consumer expects.
This allows testing of both sides of an integration point using fast unit tests.
This gem is inspired by the concept of "Consumer driven contracts". See https://martinfowler.com/articles/consumerDrivenContracts.html for more information.

Service Consumers
Pact-JVM has a number of ways you can write your service consumer tests.
I Use Scala
You want to look at: scala-pact or specs2
I Use Java
You want to look at: junit for JUnit 4 tests and junit5 for JUnit 5 tests. Also, if you are using Java 8, there is an updated DSL for consumer tests.
I Use Groovy or Grails
You want to look at: groovy or junit
(Use Clojure I)
Clojure can call out to Java, so have a look at junit. For an example look at example_clojure_consumer_pact_test.clj.
I Use some other jvm language or test framework
You want to look at: Consumer
My Consumer interacts with a Message Queue
As part of the V3 pact specification, we have defined a new pact file for interactions with message queues. For an implementation of a Groovy consumer test with a message pact, have a look at PactMessageBuilderSpec.groovy.
Service Providers
Once you have run your consumer tests, you will have generated some Pact files. You can then verify your service providers with these files.
I am writing a provider and want to ...
verify pacts with SBT
You want to look at: scala-pact
verify pacts with Gradle
You want to look at: pact gradle plugin
verify pacts with Maven
You want to look at: pact maven plugin
verify pacts with JUnit tests
You want to look at: junit provider support for JUnit 4 tests and junit5 for JUnit 5 tests
verify pacts with Leiningen
You want to look at: pact leiningen plugin
verify pacts with Specs2
Have a look at specs2
verify pacts with a Spring MVC project
Have a look at spring or Spring MVC Pact Test Runner (Not maintained).
I want to verify pacts but don't want to use sbt or gradle or leiningen
You want to look at: provider
verify interactions with a message queue
As part of the V3 pact specification, we have defined a new pact file for interactions with message queues. The Gradle pact plugin supports a mechanism where you can verify V3 message pacts, have a look at pact gradle plugin. The JUnit pact library also supports verification of V3 message pacts, have a look at junit.
I Use Ruby or Go or something else
The pact-jvm libraries are pure jvm technologies and do not have any native dependencies.
However if you have a ruby provider, the json produced by this library is compatible with the ruby pact library. You'll want to look at: Ruby Pact.
For .Net, there is Pact-net.
For JS, there is Pact-JS.
For Go, there is Pact-go.
Have a look at implementations in other languages.
I Use something completely different
There's a limit to how much we can help, however check out pact-jvm-server
How do I transport my pacts from consumers to providers?
You want to look at: Pact Broker
Which is a project that aims at providing tooling to coordinate pact generation and delivery between projects.
