            Description

            In order to be more effective in communication and in scenario development
            As a scenario writer
            I want to compose steps using existing steps

            Example:

             
Given <customer> has previously bought a <product>

            Could be a composition of 

             
Given <customer> is logged in
When they put a <product> in their cart
And go to checkout
And pay using their registered card
And go to the home page

            Need to think about what options are available for the "definition" of the composition.

            Options include: annotations, step concatenation, etc ...
