How does this help in a microservices architecture?

It ensures that changes in one service don't inadvertently break the services that depend on it by maintaining and verifying shared contracts.

Does it support OpenAPI specifications?

Yes, it can validate API implementations against OpenAPI documentation to ensure strict compliance with your defined API design.

Can this skill detect breaking changes?

Yes, it validates API responses against existing contracts and OpenAPI specifications to identify any changes that would break consumer integrations.

What is consumer-driven contract testing?

It is a methodology where the consumers of an API define the expectations of the provider, ensuring that the service meets specific requirements using tools like Pact.
