msw-pact
Create MSW (mock-service-worker) mocks, and generate pact contracts from the recorded interactions.
Note:- This is an alpha version and interface changes are to be expected. If you wish to contribute please get in touch!
How to use
In your tests, import msw and msw pact.
import { setupServer } from "msw/node";
import { setupMswPact } from "./mswPact";Instantiate your msw server and setup msw-pact
const server = setupServer();
const mswPact = setupMswPact({
server,
options: { consumerName: "myTestConsumer" },
});The following parameters are accepted
| Parameter | Required? | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
server |
true | SetupServerApi | server provided by msw |
options |
false | MswPactOptions | Override msw-pact options - see below for available params |
In your test framework, setup mock-service-work and msw-pact similar to your pre/post test setup. Jest shown.
beforeAll(async () => {
server.listen();
});
beforeEach(async () => {
mswPact.listen();
});
afterEach(async () => {
server.resetHandlers();
const pactsGeneratedAfterTest = await mswPact.returnPacts();
console.log(pactsGeneratedAfterTest);
});
afterAll(async () => {
const allPactsGeneratedAfterTestSuite = await mswPact.returnAllPacts();
console.log(allPactsGeneratedAfterTestSuite.length); // returns 2
console.log(JSON.stringify(allPactsGeneratedAfterTestSuite)); // returns any array of generated pacts
mswPact.clear();
console.log(allPactsGeneratedAfterTestSuite); // returns []
server.close();
});options
| Parameter | Required? | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
timeout |
false | number | 200 | amount of time in ms, returnPact() will wait for a match |
pactOutDir |
false | string | ./msw_generated_pacts |
write pacts to the specified location |
debug |
false | boolean | false | Print verbose logging |
consumerName |
false | string | consumer |
The consumer name |
providerName |
false | string | provider |
The provider name |
An example
Taken from ./src/pactFromMsw.msw.spec.ts
Testing an API client, used in a react application
import API from "../examples/react/src/api";
import { rest } from "msw";
import { setupServer } from "msw/node";
import { setupMswPact } from "./mswPact";
const server = setupServer();
const mswPact = setupMswPact({ server });
describe("API - With MSW mock generating a pact", () => {
beforeAll(async () => {
server.listen();
});
beforeEach(async () => {
mswPact.listen();
});
afterEach(async () => {
server.resetHandlers();
const pactsGeneratedAfterTest = await mswPact.returnPacts();
console.log(pactsGeneratedAfterTest);
});
afterAll(async () => {
mswPact.writePacts(); // writes the pacts to a file
const allPactsGeneratedAfterTestSuite = await mswPact.returnAllPacts();
console.log(allPactsGeneratedAfterTestSuite.length); // returns 2
console.log(JSON.stringify(allPactsGeneratedAfterTestSuite)); // returns any array of generated pacts

test("get all products", async () => {
const products = [

];
server.use(
rest.get(API.url + "/products", (req, res, ctx) => {
return res(ctx.status(200), ctx.json(products));
})
);
const respProducts = await API.getAllProducts();

test("unhandled route", async () => {
await expect(API.getProduct("10")).rejects.toThrow(

});This test will generate the following two pacts

}Generating msw mocks from pact files.
If you have an existing pact file, you can generate msw mocks from these.
