API Contract & Schema Testing FAQs

Question 1

What does the --check-only flag do?

Accepted Answer

It generates a comprehensive API Testing Compliance Report without making any changes to your codebase, allowing you to audit your current testing status.

Question 2

How does the breaking change detection work?

Accepted Answer

It integrates tools like oasdiff into your GitHub Actions to compare OpenAPI specifications and alert you if a proposed change might break existing API consumers.

Question 3

What is the difference between Pact and OpenAPI testing in this skill?

Accepted Answer

Pact focuses on consumer-provider agreements to prevent breaking changes in microservices, while OpenAPI testing ensures your API implementation matches your published documentation.

Accepted Answer

Yes, the skill detects the project language and applies the appropriate templates for libraries like Pact-JS, Pact-Python, Zod, or AJV depending on your tech stack.
