step ambiguity issue

[aslakhellesoy]

From @tony-kerz on June 6, 2017 15:44

the following step definitions:

    When('we HTTP GET "{path}"', async function(path) {
      //...
    })

    When('we HTTP GET "{path}" with query "{query}"', async function(path, query) {
      //...
    })

incurs the following:

1) Scenario: index with query - test/features/test.feature:23
   Step: When we HTTP GET "/" with query "_id=2" - test/features/test.feature:24
   Message:
     Multiple step definitions match:
       we HTTP GET "{path}"                      - src/index.js:41
       we HTTP GET "{path}" with query "{query}" - src/index.js:45

should there be implied begin-end terminators in these expressions?

To me, this requires you somehow to specify that path should not contain a double quote otherwise the resulting regex's will cause it to be ambiguous. cucumber-js has the built in transform for strings with in double quotes

This should no longer be an issue when #190 and #191 are fixed

Should be fixed in v4.0.0. Please reopen a new ticket referencing this one.
