Publish verification results to pact broker is not working in pact-jvm-provider-spring_2.12

Question

I am trying to publish the verification results to pact broker with pact for jvm/spring. I am using junit4. The test is executed and passed, A verification report is printed to console/ json file is added, but it's not publishing the results to pact broker.

In pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>au.com.dius</groupId>
    <artifactId>pact-jvm-provider-spring_2.12</artifactId>
    <version>3.5.24</version>
</dependency>

In TestContract.class:

@RunWith(SpringRestPactRunner.class)
@Provider("prov_test")
@PactBroker(host="192.168.132.220",port="80")
@VerificationReports({"console", "json"})
@SpringBootTest(
    properties={
        "pact.provider.version=1.0.1",
        "pact.verifier.publishResults=true"
    },
    webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.webEnvironment.DEFINED_PORT
)
public class TestContract {
...
...
}

In the output I get the warnning:

Skipping publishing of verification results (pact.verifier.publishResults is not set to 'true')

Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

We're junit5 and had to set it in the @BeforeEach to get it to work :

    void setupTestTarget(PactVerificationContext context) {
        context.setTarget(new HttpTestTarget("localhost", port, "/"));
        System.setProperty("pact.verifier.publishResults", "true");
        System.setProperty("pact.provider.version", buildVersion);
    }

Answer 2

Change pact.verifier.publishResults=true to pact.verifier.publishResults='true'
