QUESTION
I'm working on a system that calls external APIs, some are owned by my company and others are not.
My system is composed of an HTTP interface that takes orders and publishes them into a message queue in order to run an operation chain. My system is composed of 3 NodeJS processes (1 for HTTP, 2 message queue consumers), 2 databases and a message queue.
As I develop my application it becomes hard to test all the scenarios covered by my system (even tho I have unit tests). To ensure that all the components are working together, I am writing specifications using the Gherkin language and cucumber js.
To test the system, I want to be as close as the deployment environment, so I start all my system including the databases, the NodeJS processes and the message queue with docker-compose. All of the components of the system are communicating through a docker network defined in the docker-compose configuration.
The issue is that I can't make sure that all of the external APIs are in the right state ready to accept my request and that they will respond in a way that's interesting for my test steps.
So, I thought about using a Mock server for each of my dependencies and discovered pact.io. As I understand, Pact allows me to write contracts and start a mock server so my system can then run HTTP requests against the mock server. Pact also allows me to give the contract to the service provider so it can also run the contract against the real app to see if it really works.
I saw the examples, in javascript, and I am able to start a mock service, provide it an interaction, verify the interaction and close the mock service. (JS with mocha example)
My issue is that I want my system to be as close as the production so I want it to access the Pact mock service through my docker network. I saw a Pact CLI docker image to run the pact mock service (Pact CLI docker image) but once my mock server is dockerized, I lose the control that I had with the JS wrapper to add new interactions.
Also, I don't want to write pact files, I want to add interactions at the time my tests are running otherwise I will declare the test data twice (once in the cucumber tests scenarios and once in the pact files).
My questions are:
Is there a way to bind the JS wrapper to an existing mock service, a dockerize one? When using the docker pact image, is there a way to add interaction at run time? Is pact the right tool to use since I just need a mock service?
EditI just create a sandbox env to see what could be done with the NodeJS wrapper. It seems that you can create a mock service using docker and them control it via the NodeJS wrapper.

Yes, that's correct. Pact can probably be considered as a unit testing tool for your API client, that uses contract testing to ensure the mocks are valid.
If you're using Pact just for mocking, you're missing out on all of the key benefits though.
Using Pact at such a high level test is considered bad practice, and as you can see, is difficult to do (you're working against the way it is intended to be used).
I would worry less about overlapping tests (end-to-end tests will always double up with other layers testing by design), and concern yourself more about ensuring each of the API contracts are covered by Pact. These tests will run much faster, are more precise in what the test and are less flakey.
This way, you can reduce the scope of your end-to-end BDD scenarios to the key ones and that should reduce the maintenance cost.

QUESTION
I have been working on a code that uses Python Behave(cucumber, language gherkin). I wanna put that code as a google cloud function. My question is can we fire .feature files from the google cloud shell?
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Jan-03 at 15:09Unfortunately, the Gherkin language is not currently supported by Google Cloud Functions, as you can see here, because they are executed in language-specific runtimes:
Cloud Functions can be written in Node.js, Python, Go, Java, .NET, Ruby, and PHP programming languages, and are executed in language-specific runtimes.
Even though you can add Python dependencies, the language must be Python; as you are trying to deploy Gherkin code, I would suggest trying to use the library instead of the CLI, in which case you can have more chances to succeed, as the language used is still Python. That way, you don’t have to use .feature files. You can see how to add the dependency in the link mentioned above.
Using the library is the preferred way to use Gherkin, since it produces easily consumable AST and Pickle objects in-process without having to fork a CLI process or parse JSON.
The library itself provides a stream API, which is what the CLI is based on. This is the recommended way to use the library, as it provides a high level API that is easy to use.
If in any case you find trouble using the library, you can still change to Google Cloud Run, as it has a similar approach of serverless architecture with the freedom of using any language, library or binary.
Any language, any library, any binary.Use the programming language of your choice, any language or operating system libraries, or even bring your own binaries.

Install Gherkin
PHP requires the Visual C runtime (CRT). The Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 is suitable for all these PHP versions, see visualstudio.microsoft.com. You MUST download the x86 CRT for PHP x86 builds and the x64 CRT for PHP x64 builds. The CRT installer supports the /quiet and /norestart command-line switches, so you can also script it.
