Available Containers & Registrations

Global Container

Captures global services for test execution and the step definition, hook and transformation discovery result (ie what step definitions you have).

• IRuntimeConfigurationProvider
• ITestRunnerManager
• IStepFormatter
• ITestTracer
• ITraceListener
• ITraceListenerQueue
• IErrorProvider
• IRuntimeBindingSourceProcessor
• IRuntimeBindingRegistryBuilder
• IBindingRegistry

• IRuntimePluginLoader
• IBindingAssemblyLoader
• IRuntimePlugin.RegisterDependencies - for dependencies from RuntimePlugins

##Test Thread Container (parent Container is the Global Container)

Captures services and state for executing the scenarios on a particular test thread. For parallel test execution, multiple test runner containers are created (one for each thread).

• ITestRunner
• IContextManager
• ITestExecutionEngine
• IStepArgumentTypeConverter
• IStepDefinitionMatchService
• ITraceListener
• ITestTracer

##Scenario Container (parent Container is the Test Runner Container)

Captures the state of a scenario execution. Disposed after the scenario is executed.

• (step definition classes)
