call hierarchy for stepdefinitions #6

Open ilanpillemer opened 11 years ago

ilanpillemer commented 11 years ago

"Just like you can find usages of a method in Java, you should be able to find (Gherkin step) usages of a step definition. Cucumber-JVM already has the ability to create a ""database"" of steps, step definitions and their usages. See this example.

This can be used as the basis for such a feature."

Where is the example?

laeubi commented 5 years ago

@ilanpillemer can you provide the example please? @mpkorstanje can you tell what "database of steps in cucumber-jvm" could be referenced here?

ilanpillemer commented 5 years ago

@laeubi I am afraid my memory of most of what I thought, did, achieved, ate, drank, watched in 2013 is a bit sketchy. And this particular memory did not make it through.

laeubi commented 5 years ago

Okay thanks, maybe @mpkorstanje has an idea otherwise I'll just close the ticket.

mpkorstanje commented 5 years ago

In eclipse you have a feature to show the call hierarchy of a method. Shows all callers and the callers of callers. Since steps call methods, it would be nice if they were included.

Havent got the foggiest idea what the repository of steps could be though.

Okay that makes sense. Will keep this open then.
