When I run my Pact tests with jest I keep seeing:

pact-core@15.1.1: The pact native core has already been initialised at log level 'warn' log level 'trace' will be ignored

I can't find much info on this, I tried setting the LOG_LEVEL env var, I tried this:

var pact = require("@pact-foundation/pact-core");
pact.logLevel("debug");

But to no avail so far, I think it has something to do with Jest? I set my Pact options like so:

pactWith({ consumer: 'Frontend', provider: 'BE' }, provider => {
  beforeAll(() => {
    // @ts-ignore
    global.fetch = fetch
    // @ts-ignore
    global.Response = Response
    store = setupStore()

    provider.opts = {
      ssl: false,
      host: backendUrl.hostname,
      consumer: 'Frontend',
      provider: 'BE',
      logLevel: 'trace',
      dir: path.resolve(process.cwd(), 'pacts'), // Output directory
      spec: SpecificationVersion.SPECIFICATION_VERSION_V3, // Consider using V2, it doesn't require anything extra and is considered stable
      port: Number(backendUrl.port),
    }

hmm might be the jest-pact setup, I’m not overly familiar with it. Basically the log level can’t be modified after being set

Thank you Matt, that got me exactly in the right direction, it's embarrassingly simple:

pactWith({ consumer: 'Frontend', provider: 'BE', logLevel: 'trace' }, provider => {

When using

ject-pact

set your options in the p*actWith* function, not as

provider.opts

since they get overwritten

ah, thanks for letting us know.

That's good to know thank you. We're currently looking into getting the enterprise plan for our company, which has a huge FE repo. I'm just a QA there and no frontend dev and trying convert some of our mocks to Pact. Somehow the only way I got it to work was using jest-pact, but I will see if I can try again to go with 'regular' pact, since it's much better documented as well.

Don’t sell yourself short my friend - but if you need any help, we’re here 🙂

Thank you Matt, I might make use of that offer already: Trying to switch from Consumer first testing to BDCT, and therefore set my pactflow credentials up in env vars. I'm getting this error though:

Error making request to <https://deepl.pactflow.io/provider-contracts/provider/BE-openapi-spec/publish> status=400 {"title":"Validation errors","type":"<https://problems-registry.smartbear.com/validation-error>","status":400,"instance":"/","errors":[{"detail":"is missing","pointer":"#/contract/contentType"}]}

It seem like a pretty clear error but I can't find where to set this contentType, any suggestions? I'm using this Makefile to run a single test (which passes) after which I'm trying to publish, this is the step that fails:

PACTICIPANT ?= "BE-openapi-spec"
