Hi everyone, Pact verification tests are to be added in Provider CI or Provider CD? I see some pact documents pointing it to be a step in provider CI - but even before the actual application up and running post deployment, how does it work in CI? Any help here?

You shouldn't be testing against a live environment, so usually it would be in your CI pipeline

You mean, provider verification tests would require just the updated code (in CI) rather than the deployed application (after CD) to run and verify the contracts.
