Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone could help me out with this please?

We were using pact-jvm-provider-junit_2.11 version 3.2.8 in mvn style to write some provider side Junit tests.

The Junit version we are using is 4.12

The tests were working like charm with using PactRunner class and PactFolder annotation using local pact files. All good.

We thought of trying the pact broker and have setup one.

I can access the pact files on broker by hitting the url with port 80 using CURL and also can access the pact files using a browser.

The url I'm hitting is of format http://pactbroker.yy.xx.zzz.com

And the actual pact is located at http://pactbroker.yy.xx.zzz.com/pacts/provider/pname/consumer/consumer%20name/latest

Please note that the consumer name has a space in its name.

The annotations we are using with the test is as below,

@RunWith(PactRunner.class)

@Provider("pname")

@PactBroker(host = "pactbroker.yy.xx.zzz.com", port = "80")

When we tried to change to PactBroker annotation as above we get the following error,

java.lang.Exception: Error while creating pact source

Any clues? Not sure what we are doing wrong here?

Any ideas as how to debug, apart from generic Initialization Error message?

Cheers

Hi Aravind,

The original error is not being propagated (I'll fix that), but it should have been logged out at ERROR log level. This will tell you what the problem is. You should be able to find it in the JUnit test report.
