Verify consumer contracts against a proposed spec change
When a provider opens a spec-change PR, replay every registered consumer contract against the proposed schema and block the merge if any consumer's expectations would break.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.
- TriggerSpec-change pull request openedGitHub
- ActionFetch proposed spec and consumer contractsPostgres
- ActionReplay each consumer contract against specShell
- LogicAny consumer contract failing?
- ActionPage provider on-call on failurePagerDuty
- OutputSet blocking or passing commit statusGitHub
What it does
Runs consumer-driven contract verification on spec changes. It collects the contracts each consumer has registered (the requests they send and responses they expect), validates them against the proposed provider spec, and fails the check the moment a consumer expectation is no longer satisfiable.
When to use it
Use this when you practice consumer-driven contracts and need provider-side enforcement: the provider should not be able to merge a spec change that silently breaks a known consumer. It complements unit tests by checking real, registered expectations rather than assumptions.
How it works
- 1A pull request touching the spec triggers the run from GitHub.
- 2The flow fetches the proposed spec and pulls all registered consumer contracts from a Postgres registry.
- 3A shell step replays each contract against the proposed spec and records pass or fail.
- 4A logic branch checks for any failed contract.
- 5On failure it sets a blocking commit status on the GitHub PR and pages the provider on-call via PagerDuty with the failing consumers.
- 6On success it sets a passing status.
