3.7Pact in CI/CD

Consumer CI:
  1. Run consumer Pact tests → generates Pact file
  2. Publish Pact to broker
  3. Check "can I deploy?" against broker

Provider CI:
  1. Pull consumer Pacts from broker
  2. Run provider verification
  3. Publish verification results
  4. Check "can I deploy?" against broker

The broker tracks which consumer versions are verified against which provider versions, enabling safe independent deployments.
