pact- Contract Testing- The PACT file is not getting picked up for the execution

Question

Initially started to analyze PACT by downloading the project from github location. In the existing project i have included my code for a GET request services.groupkt.com/country/get/iso2code/IN.

I was able to generate the PACT file but when i try to verify from the producer end i get the below message

 D:\microservices-pact-maven-master\microservices-pact-consumer>mvn    au.com.dius:p
act-jvm-provider-maven_2.11:verify

  a request for Foos
    returns a response which

Could someone help me fix this issue.

Thanks in advance

This could be an issue with the provider name mentioned in the consumer test where the PACT is getting created. I think your code is having the below values in your consumer pact class.

@Pact(provider = "Foo_provider", consumer = "Foo_consumer")

Please change the provider and consumer names as per your requirement. Run the consumer test again and then run the provider test.
