All Implemented Interfaces:

ParameterConverters.ParameterConverter<String,Enum<?>>

Enclosing class:

ParameterConverters

public static class ParameterConverters.FluentEnumConverter
extends ParameterConverters.EnumConverter

An ParameterConverters.EnumConverter allowing stories prose to be more natural. Before performing the actual conversion, it ransforms values to upper-case, with any non-alphanumeric character replaced by an underscore ('_').

Example: assuming we have defined the step "Given I am on the $page" which is mapped to the method iAmOnPage(PageEnum page), we can then write in a scenario:

 Given I am on the login page
 

instead of:

 Given I am on the LOGIN_PAGE
 

Warning. This requires enum constants to follow the standard conventions for constant names, i.e. all uppercase letters, with words separated by underscores.
