Scala-Pact 1.0.0

[david....@itv.com]

https://github.com/ITV/scala-pact

ITV has been using the excellent Ruby, JS, and Swift Pact tools for quite a while now, and was looking for a solution more tightly integrated with our Scala ecosystem. Assessments of Pact-JVM about six months ago looked promising and convinced us that using Pact with our Scala microservices was worth pursuing. At the time, Pact-JVM didn’t quite offer the Scala / SBT integrated experience we were looking for, so we decided to create our own Scala specific implementation.

Scala-Pact is very nearly Pact Specification V2 compatible, the main feature omission at the moment is body matchers. Our aim is to gradually bring it in line with the standard spec, and keep it compatible with the Ruby tools such as pact broker, which we still use.

The project is still evolving and in daily use by three teams at ITV with others coming on board, so the project is benefitting from a lot of user feedback. Some of our teams also use AMQP extensively so we’re looking at Pact V3 with interest for future work.

We couldn’t have built Scala-Pact without the people in this community that went before us, generously sharing their work and ideas. We hope you find our contribution meaningful and look forward to collaborating with the community in the future.

Nice work! I'll update the references at docs.pact.io to add a reference to your github project.

Thank you very much Ron.

Hi David,

I have recently posted a question here about using "sbt pact-publish" for consumer test written in pact-jvm-consumer-junit.

Basically, everything ran successfully as shown by the output, but the "interactions" is not generated in the pact file.

Just wondering is there any workaround to enable "sbt pact-test" to run on tests written in Java?

Please shed some light.

Thanks heaps.

Chuan

Hi Chuan,

First apologies for the slow reply, I've been attending to some family business.

Pact-JVM and Scala-Pact are two completely separate libraries at the moment, so running sbt pact-test will not output any results from tests suites written using Pact-JVM's test framework.

I think I saw somewhere that Ron and Co. we're planning to create sbt tasks for Pact-JVM but you'll need to ask them. Ron, do you know more about the state of that?

At the moment, if you want to use the Scala-Pact sbt functions you'll need to convert your tests into Scala-Pact format using ScalaTest (should be pretty easy unless you're using body matchers).

Does that help?

Dave

Hi David,

Thank you very much for your clarification. 

Yeap, we now know that Pact JVM and Pact Scala are separate entities.

Cheers,

Chuan
