 Key: JBEHAVE-492

 Project: JBehave
  Issue Type: New Feature
  Components: Core
Affects Versions: 3.x
Reporter: Paul Hammant
Assignee: Mauro Talevi
 Fix For: 3.4


 public void addSteps(ListClass steps) {
 }
 ... would be better.
 Why?  There's an instance that's made during the setup of a suite (refer 
 EtsyStories).  If you are running in multi-threaded mode, that **initial** 
 instance is **never** used during the running of scenarios.
 In multi-threaded mode, there's a constructor for BasePage that takes a 
 WebDriverProvider.  When it is passed in during the primordial instantiation 
 phase, no WebDriver has been initialized.  We don't want to do that of course 
 because (a) we know this **initial** instance is going to be garbage 
 collected and never used, and (b) on SauceLabs at least it would result in 
 browser opening in the cloud then closing (or maybe not closing, but never 
 used; I'm not sure).
 JBehave does not actually need the **initial** instance.  I believe this is 
 provable. Instead it could perfectly well use the class definition without 
 the instance ref somehow.   
 Proposal:  Long overdue, I think, but could for 4.x we shift to using 
 class-defs.  Either rework CandidateSteps to hold a Class rather than an 
 instance.  Or further do a away (move the logic elsewhere) with 
 CandidateSteps, and use the POJO Step's class-def directly.

Description: 
In multi-threaded mode, the steps instances need to be instantiated per thread. 

A way to do this is to pass the InjectableStepsFactory to the StoryRunner run 
context and let the context instantiate the candidate steps per thread.

Summary: CandidateSteps instances should be created by StoryRunner context 
allowing for multi-threaded stateful steps logic  (was: 
ConfigurableEmbedder.addSteps(..) should take classes not instances.)
