Auto-generate steps from scenario template
------------------------------------------
Key: JBEHAVE-148
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JBEHAVE-148
Project: JBehave
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Reporter: Mauro Talevi
At the moment, the process of writing the matching Java steps is manual,
although automating their generation from the scenario textual template may be
useful. It would involve defining a template of scenario steps, e.g.
Given a condition $condition:Condition
When an $event:Event
Then the result is $result:Result
which would map to methods
@Given("a condition $condition")
public void aCondition(Condition condition){
}
@When("an event $event")
public void anEvent(Event event){
}
@Then("the result is $result")
public void theResultIs(Result result){
}
Note that the template must specify the name and type of the parameter (with a
given convention, e.g. colon separated).
We'd also need to come up with some "runner", that can play well both in IDE
and in CLI. Something like a Template, akin to Scenario, that would match the
match the template name (like scenario files match the scenario class).
