All Implemented Interfaces:

ObjectFactory

public class SpringFactory
extends Object
implements ObjectFactory

Spring based implementation of ObjectFactory.

It uses two Spring contexts:

• one which contains the step definitions and is reloaded for each scenario.

Application beans are accessible from the step definitions using autowiring (with annotations).
