Verifier

Verifier for Pact.

The Verifier is used to verify that a provider meets the expectations of a consumer. This is done by replaying interactions from the consumer against the provider, and ensuring that the provider's responses match the expectations set by the consumer.

The interactions to be verified can be sourced either from local Pact files or from a Pact Broker. The Verifier can be configured to filter interactions based on their description and state, and to set the provider information and transports.

When performing the verification, Pact will replay the interactions from the consumer against the provider and ensure that the provider's responses match the expectations set by the consumer.

Info

The interface provided by this module could be improved. If you have any suggestions, please consider creating a new GitHub discussion or reaching out over Slack.

Usage

The general usage of the Verifier is as follows:

from pact.v3 import Verifier


# In the case of local Pact files
verifier = Verifier().set_info("My Provider", url="http://localhost:8080")
verifier.add_source("pact/to/pacts/")
verifier.verify()

# In the case of a Pact Broker
verifier = Verifier().set_info("My Provider", url="http://localhost:8080")
verifier.broker_source("https://broker.example.com/")
verifier.verify()

State Handling

In general, the consumer will write interactions assuming that the provider is in a certain state. For example, a consumer requesting information about a user with ID 123 will have specified given("user with ID 123 exists"). It is the responsibility of the provider to ensure that this state is met before the interaction is replayed.

In order to change the provider's internal state, Pact relies on a callback endpoint. The specific manner in which this endpoint is implemented is up to the provider as it is highly dependent on the provider's architecture.

One common approach is to define the endpoint during testing only, and for the endpoint to mock the expected calls to the database and/or external services. This allows the provider to be tested in isolation from the rest of the system, and assertions can be made about the calls made to the endpoint.

An alternative approach might be to run a dedicated service which is responsible for writing to the database such that the provider can retrieve the expected data. This approach is more complex, but could be useful in cases where test databases are already in use.

set_info(name: str, *, url: str | URL | None = None, scheme: str | None = None, host: str | None = None, port: int | None = None, path: str | None = None) -> Self

Set the provider information.

This sets up information about the provider as well as the way it communicates with the consumer. Note that for historical reasons, a HTTP(S) transport method is always added.

For a provider which uses other protocols (such as message queues), the add_transport must be used. This method can be called multiple times to add multiple transport methods.

PARAMETER	DESCRIPTION
name	A user-friendly name for the provider. TYPE: str
url	The URL on which requests are made to the provider by Pact. It is recommended to use this parameter to set the provider URL. If the port is not explicitly set, the default port for the scheme will be used. This parameter is mutually exclusive with the individual parameters. TYPE: str | URL | None DEFAULT: None
scheme	The provider scheme. This must be one of http or https. TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None
host	The provider hostname or IP address. If the provider is running on the same machine as the verifier, localhost can be used. TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None
port	The provider port. If not specified, the default port for the schema will be used. TYPE: int | None DEFAULT: None
path	The provider context path. If not specified, the root path will be used. If a non-root path is used, the path given here will be prepended to the path in the interaction. For example, if the path is /api, and the interaction path is /users, the request will be made to /api/users. TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None
