Specmatic Kafka Sample

• Specmatic Website
• Specmatic Documenation

This sample project demonstrates how we can run contract tests against a service which interacts with a kafka broker.

Background

This project includes a consumer that listens to messages on a specific topic. Upon receiving a message, the consumer processes it and publishes a new message to two other designated topics.

Pre-requisites

• Gradle
• JDK 17+
• Docker

Run the tests

./gradlew clean test

Run the contract tests using specmatic-kafka docker image

1. Start the kafka broker using Specmatic's Kafka Mock. [Note - You can use any kafka broker other than this too.]

   docker run -p 9092:9092 -p 2181:2181 -p 29092:29092 -v "$PWD/specmatic.yaml:/usr/src/app/specmatic.yaml" znsio/specmatic-kafka-trial virtualize

2. Run the application.

    ./gradlew bootRun

3. Run the contract tests.

    docker run --network="host" -v "$PWD/specmatic.yaml:/usr/src/app/specmatic.yaml" -v "$PWD/src/test/resources:/usr/src/app/examples" znsio/specmatic-kafka-trial test --examples=examples
