Hi everyone - just wondering if anyone used Pact for SIP protocol testing.

Hey dude, what is SIP protocol testing, for the uneducated (like me)

SIP is a protocol used in the telecom industry. It allows pairing the caller and the callee after a series of handshakes between intermediary proxies. Quite similar to HTTP in terms of concepts... it has a header...status codes etc.

I think the answer here is no, as we only support HTTP as a protocol, or are protocol agnostic (sync/async messaging). I think this would need to be implemented as a plugin, if I understand correctly

Contract testing is a really good fit for SIP, although as Matt says, Pact doesn’t directly support it

@Timothy Jones thanks! Do you also refer to the use of the Plugins or another way? And did you try it?

I think he’s just saying that contract testing (concept) is a valid strategy for SIP, without regard to specific implementation
