Pact json being overwritten by each test about pact-go HOT 5 CLOSED

OK unfortunately my docs were out of date @gallamine, the parameter should have been merge instead of update. Also, the behaviour of that flag changed and I hadn't updated. I've pushed an update just now and tested locally - a new beta build should be pushed up shortly . Could you please let me know if that fixes it?

Hi @gallamine, this is expected behaviour.

Check out splitting tests across multiple files. Basically, each time you instantiate a Pact struct with the same set of consumers/providers, we need to know if it's a new set of interactions, or just an addition to the previous. By default, we assume it's a new set that replaces the old.

Check out how the example consumer test does this with TestMain. Alternatively, set the pact file write mode to update.

This is helpful. Thanks! I've tried modifying my pact to look like this:

pact := &dsl.Pact{
		Port: 6666,
		Consumer: "Loader",
		Provider: "score_server",
		Host: "localhost",
		PactFileWriteMode: "update",
	}

in both test cases, but the behavior still persists. I've thus moved to using Golang subtests to only use one pact definition.

Mmm that shouldn't happen though, I'll reopen and investigate

Closing this due to inactivity. I believe the issue is sorted, please re-open if there are further issues.
