hey team, in a bidirectional validation, marking a delete as deprecated caused the validation to break entirely, as if it had been removed from the spec. The idea was to use the deprecation flag for a while to redirect consumers to another API. Is this the expected behavior? Thanks

Can you please show how you deprecated it?

it was deprecated by setting deprecated=true

Could you please raise an issue here with a reproducible example: https://github.com/pactflow/openapi-pact-comparator/ I’ve just tested this locally with a working example, and deprecating the endpoint didn’t break the test
