Hi Rob,
SeleniumSteps is just a utility class, but you are not forced to inherit
from it.
Nothing stops you from creating your own instance of Selenium in your steps:
public class MySteps(){
private Selenium selenium;
@Given("the browser is <browser>")
public void givenBrowser(@Named("browser") String browser){
selenium = createSeleniumFor(browser);
}
}
Note that if using POJOs for Steps, you need to use the StepsFactory:
|||addSteps(||new| |StepsFactory().createCandidateSteps(||new|
|MySteps())); |||
Cheeers
