C＃PACT-消费者驱动的联系人测试-提供商的写作测试

Question

I am trying to get my head about PACT and I am using the PACT-Net library to achieve this.

My tests on the Consumer are working fine but I am trying to setup the tests on the Provider. I am using the basic Web API project that loads when you use the Web API template within Visual Studio - which creates the Values API controller. I am just testing the Get IEumerable<string> method as an end to end test of the process. I am also following the example on the PACT-Net github site. Here is the test I have so far:

    [Fact]
    public void EnsureValuesReturnedFromApi()
    {
        var config = new PactVerifierConfig
        {
            Outputters = new List<IOutput>
            {
                new XUnitOutput(_output)
            }
        };

    using (WebApp.Start<TestStartup>(serviceUri))
    {
        var pactVerifier = new PactVerifier(config);
        pactVerifier.ProviderState($"{serviceUri}/provider-states")
            .ServiceProvider("Values API", serviceUri)
            .HonoursPactWith("Consumer")
            .PactUri("http://localhost:8080/pacts/provider/Values%20API/consumer/Consumer/latest")
            .Verify();
    }
}

When ever I run the unit test I get the following error:

Reading pact at http://localhost:8080/pacts/provider/Values%20API/consumer/Consumer/latest

1 interaction, 1 failure

Failed interactions:

* Getting a list given When I want the values

I guess my question is, do I need to actually test the HTTP calls to /api/values or am I missing something else?

Thanks

So after speaking to a colleague and getting a hint, it was down to the Startup class. I hadn't realised it effectively starts the web application so

public class TestStartup
{
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
    {
        var startup = new Startup();
        app.Use<ProviderStateMiddleware>(); 
        startup.Configuration(app);
    }
}

calls the startup class within the application:

public class Startup
{
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
    {
        var httpConfig = new HttpConfiguration();
        httpConfig.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

        httpConfig.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
            name: "DefaultApi",
            routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
            defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
        );

        var appXmlType = httpConfig.Formatters.XmlFormatter.SupportedMediaTypes
                                   .FirstOrDefault(t => t.MediaType == "application/xml");
        httpConfig.Formatters.XmlFormatter.SupportedMediaTypes.Remove(appXmlType);

        app.UseWebApi(httpConfig);
    }
}

and my unit test passed. Hope this helps someone.
