Failures in oneOf, anyOf, etc, are actually in the referenced schema

[Altreus]

If a schema is invalid, it will cause a oneOf to fail instead of failing on its own. I discovered this while thinking optional was a valid thing.

The below is valid except I've added optional to Dog. The failure is now On instance['paths']['/pets']['patch']['requestBody'] instead of the expected ['components']['schemas']['Dog'].

paths:
  /pets:
    patch:
      requestBody:
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:
              oneOf:
                - $ref: '#/components/schemas/Cat'
                - $ref: '#/components/schemas/Dog'
      responses:
        '200':
          description: Updated
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                oneOf:
                  - $ref: '#/components/schemas/Cat'
                  - $ref: '#/components/schemas/Dog'
components:
  schemas:
    Dog:
      type: object
      optional: [ "bark" ]
      properties:
        bark:
          type: boolean
        breed:
          type: string
          enum: [Dingo, Husky, Retriever, Shepherd]
    Cat:

      properties:

A workaround is to replace all refs with a simple object; then it will validate all of the schemata without getting tripped up by a ref.

Is this fixed by #129?

It can be tried easily using:

pip install --force-reinstall git+https://github.com/JulienPalard/openapi-spec-validator@show-context
