We are using Behave to bind our Gherkin Feature files to Python. I am running into a problem where we are starting to duplicate our step_impl functions, and I want to eliminate the code duplication, but I am not able to figure out how to tell behave about a steps/ directory that is not immediately next to the feature file. Below is our feature file structure:
all_components/features/huge.feature
all_components/features/steps/steps.py
component1/features/little.feature
component1/features/steps/steps.py
I want to run Behave on the huge.feature and find step implementations under component1/features/steps/, and not just all_components/features/steps.py, so that individual component features and steps remain intact, and I can reuse steps in the component features for my huge.feature
$ behave all_components/features/
