I debugged it and as it seems, this method does not work as I would expect
it: org.jbehave.core.steps.StepCreator.ParameterisedStep.parametriseStep()
The "org.jbehave.core.annotations.Named" annotation supports only one
value. But in my use cases I need two values: "creditAccount" and
"debitAccount".
What if you support using an regular expression for the @Named annotation
instead of allowing just one value?
That could be one way to solve it. The method
"ParameterisedStep.parametriseStep()" would need to be adapted accordingly
to support that logic.
