All Implemented Interfaces:

InjectableStepsFactory

Direct Known Subclasses:

InstanceStepsFactory, ScanningStepsFactory
```
public abstract class AbstractStepsFactory
extends Object
implements InjectableStepsFactory
```
An abstract implementation of InjectableStepsFactory that is provided by concrete subclasses Object instances which contain the candidate steps methods. The Object instances are wrapped by Steps.

The object instances are also inspected for methods annotated by AsParameterConverter and the ParameterConverters.ParameterConverter is configured accordingly.
