I updated the line that read and: And To read and: And|With Then my step_definition file can have a step definition like Given /a PCF Practice state/ do ... end Which I'd exactly what I was looking for. My only concern I'd that I'd like to be able to add the 'With' to the language through code instead of having to update the yaml file. That way I have the option of varying the language for specific projects without having to 'polute' the basic language globally. I assumed this was what the 'add_alias' function would do for me in the first place. ***************************************************************************** Disclaimer: This electronic message may contain information that is Confidential or legally privileged.
