Starting out with Pactum

[orenhan]

Hi, I'm trying to test out pactum for contract testing following the documentation and encountered a few issues.

1. I have a docker container runnnig pactumjs/flows locally, according to docs I should be able to log in with scanner, admin and viewer, when I try I get - 'Invalid Credentials. Please try again!.'

2. I have a NodeJs with typescript and jest with a very basic server, this is my attempt for provider test -

import { main } from ".."
import pf from 'pactum-flow-plugin';
import { reporter, flow } from "pactum";
import { Server, IncomingMessage, ServerResponse } from "http";

const addFlowReporter = () => {
    pf.config.url = 'http://localhost:8080'; // pactum flow server url
    pf.config.projectId = 'provider';
    pf.config.projectName = 'provider';
    pf.config.version = '1.0.0';
    pf.config.username = 'scanner';
    pf.config.password = 'scanner';
    reporter.add(pf.reporter);
}

describe("test", () => {
    let app: Server<typeof IncomingMessage, typeof ServerResponse>;
    beforeAll(() => {
        app = main(); // creating express server
        addFlowReporter();
    })

    afterAll(async () => {
        app.close();
        await reporter.end();
    })

    test.only("get 1", async () => {
        await flow('get 1')
        .get('/get/1')
        .expectStatus(402);
    })
})

I got -

TypeError: Invalid URL

      at setBaseUrl (node_modules/pactum/src/helpers/requestProcessor.js:33:16)
      at Object.process (node_modules/pactum/src/helpers/requestProcessor.js:14:5)

      at Spec.then (node_modules/pactum/src/models/Spec.js:520:10)

and -

Haven't found a lot of documentation online, so hopping to get some help here :)
Thanks!

Hello @orenhan ,

TypeError: Invalid URL
Can you check if you are setting the base url according to the docs

thrown: "Failed to authenticate with flows server"
Can you check if you are able to login to the flow server with the given credentials from a browser?

[orenhan]

about the base URL - fixed :)

about to authentication - I tried to login from the browser, as viewer, scanner and admin, got 'Invalid Credentials. Please try again!.' for all of them
