Hi,
Could someone help me resolve this conflict:
Then the selected item should have a <label> tag with "Foo:"
Multiple step definitions match “the selected item should have a
tag with “Foo:””: (Cucumber::Multiple)
features/step_definitions/page_builder_steps.rb:355:in `/^the
(selected|first|second|last) item should have a <(.)> tag with
"(.)"/’
features/step_definitions/browser_steps.rb:117:in `/^the (.) should
have a <(.)> tag with “(.*)”/’
Perhaps tell it to ignore any matches with " item" in it, but dont
know how

Are the steps doing anything different? I mean it seems like selected|
first|second are part of .* so you can put that specific logic in the
step I would thing and have one step to handle them all
Or then just change slightly your sentence so they don t overlap

It’s called a zero-width negative lookahead, and it looks like this:
/^the (?!\w+ item)(.) should have a <(.)> tag with “(.*)”/
I didn’t test this to be sure, but I believe it should work. But
rephrasing your steps so that one isn’t a special case of the other
would probably be better. Or just having one step that contains the
logic from both.

Thanks that worked.
Normally I would combine them into one step, but this case, one is in
a general reusable steps file, and the other is specific to a
feature. I thought the word “item” would be sufficient to distinguish
the two.
