Contract Testing in Action makes it easy for your team to adopt contract testing for microservices and other API-centric systems. You’ll start by learning how contract testing fits into the software development lifecycle, and then you’ll explore practical methods to integrate it with your own tech stack and practices. You’ll use leading contract testing tools—including Pact, PactFlow, and GitHub Actions—to build your own contract testing framework, set up consumer-driven contract testing for REST and GraphQL APIs, and integrate it into your CI/CD pipeline.
