Hi Team, do you have any plan to integrate AsyncAPI format for pact based testing. The latest I could get was that the plugin framework has been released through which one can write their own plugin and make it open source in case they want to.

There are no plans to integrate Pact with AsyncAPI at this moment. AsyncAPI is a description format, just like OpenAPI which Pact doesn’t support either. See also https://docs.pact.io/faq#can-i-generate-my-pact-file-from-something-like-swagger. How would you see Pact + AsyncAPI working together? We are looking at integrating to AsyncAPI for Pactflow’s bi-directional contract testing feature, similar to what we have done with OAS if that’s what you’re asking https://github.com/pactflow/roadmap/projects/1?

Yes, my question was pretty similar to "Can I generate my pact file from something like Swagger". As a team I want to maintain the async api schema at a central place and then want to generate pact file against it. I know the limitation would be either random generated values or generating values from example given in the specification. And yes, the other part you mentioned for bi directional testing would also be helpful
