In both cases the extra classes are not for implementation needs but for communication purposes.
what do you mean? For me steps are running in a... webtest, The Context just represents... the webtest that is running.
It encapsulates information that a step works upon and passes to the next trailing step, e.g. the last retrieved page. This is a subtle difference to representing the step itself.
The class serves an implementation and a communication purpose.
Context is what steps are supposed to share. I would rather like to keep that. It would also affect a lot of custom steps if we remove that...
I can understand that Context removal could imply numerous changes
(time for a 2.x serie?)
not before we have a 1.7 final :-)
in custom steps but as far as I remember you said once, that what matters is just that the usage in ant files doesn't get broken. Isn't it ;-).
I cannot remember everything I said once. Not breaking the tests as defined in the xml is a must. Not breaking custom steps is also valuable. We shouldn't do so without very good reason. Note that changing doExecute(context) to doExecute() would break all steps.
Concerning Engine: have you really custom steps that would be deeply affected if it gets removed?
No, Engine doesn't affect the custom steps. That point only concerned Context.
