Generate Pact tests using PactFlow AI. You can provide one or more of the following input types: (1) request/response pairs for specific interactions, (2) code files to analyze and extract interactions from, and/or (3) OpenAPI document to generate tests for specific endpoints.

Part of the SmartBear MCP MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents use contract-testing_generate_pact_tests to create or modify resources in SmartBear MCP. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call contract-testing_generate_pact_tests repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach SmartBear MCP.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Generate Pact tests using PactFlow AI. You can provide one or more of the following input types: (1) request/response pairs for specific interactions, (2) code files to analyze and extract interactions from, and/or (3) OpenAPI document to generate tests for specific endpoints. When providing an OpenAPI document, a matcher is required to specify which endpoints to generate tests for. **Parameters:** - language (enum): Target language for the generated Pact tests. If not provided, will be inferred from other inputs. - requestResponse (object): Direct request/response pair for a specific interaction. Use this when you have concrete examples of API requests and responses - code (array): Collection of source code files to analyze and extract API interactions from. Include client code, data models, existing tests, or any code that makes API calls - openapi (any) - additionalInstructions (string): Optional free-form instructions to guide the generation process (e.g., 'Focus on error scenarios', 'Include authentication headers', 'Use specific test framework patterns') - testTemplate (object): Optional test template to use as a basis for generation. Helps ensure generated tests follow your specific patterns, frameworks, and coding standards. It is categorised as a Write tool in the SmartBear MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for contract-testing_generate_pact_tests. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the SmartBear MCP MCP server.
contract-testing_generate_pact_tests is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the contract-testing_generate_pact_tests rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for contract-testing_generate_pact_tests. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
contract-testing_generate_pact_tests is provided by the SmartBear MCP MCP server (@smartbear/mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
