Pact Foundation

Hello, Can someone point me to how to set the "pending" flag per interaction in Pact TS consumer tests? In the Python implementation, this is done by calling .set_pending(pending=True).

hmmm pending pacts is a _dynamic_ calculation: <http://docs.pact.io/pending|docs.pact.io/pending>

<@U05QQCKMNLD> <@UB7B75EE4>

see <https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-python/blob/65f246988a53497d97aa90da3a615df98c9c7055/src/pact/interaction/_base.py#L424-L432>

I assume this refers to <https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-specification/issues/73>. How does this work downstream - do the verifiers honour it and does the broker need to know about it?

Verifier honours the flag, whether returned by the broker or set on the interaction.

I think Pact-JS jsut needs to add a method to set it

```if (brokerSays.pending || interaction.pending) {
  // interaction must be pending```

I assume this works on all interaction types (messages included)?

The only way to unset it is to publish a new Pact

i.e. publish a new pact, but removing the flag?

thanks. Looks like I can support adding comments, text and test name (based on that same code above).

I’ll get them done together.

See <https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-js/pull/1693>. Let me know if that looks OK, and we can get it merged/released

Probably just this file to see what it looks like to an end user: <https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-js/pull/1693/changes#diff-8cbebc78bf3c2aaa210c4ea98b5ee393202210a141753c92b961fcbaf7270289>
