Microservices Contract Testing with Pact Java 2022

“Contract testing” is a more popular term that we are coming across in the testing industry. The applications which are built on microservices-based architectures have given birth to Contract testing.

Companies are accommodating contract testing at their unit testing level nowadays to avoid delays in catching defects at integration testing.

***For More details, Please watch the Preview lectures of this course to get a detailed understanding of how and Why Contract Testing****

In this course, We shall be using the Pact Contract testing tool with Java to test the inter-communication contract between Microservices

What does this Course offer?

This course helps you to understand all the concepts revolving around Contract testing first to make you realize the importance of having these tests in the Projects
And then introduces the Contract testing tool called Pact and gets deep dive into writing Consumer & Provider driven Contract tests to test Microservices Intercommunication.
I will also show you different helper orchestrator tools available such as Pactflow to manage Contract files across the Projects centrally.

On course completion, You will have a thorough understanding of how Microservices communication works internally and how we can test this communication using the Pact Contract Testing tool.
