To pass variables between steps I have the step methods belong to the same class, and use fields of the class for the passed information.

Here is an example as follows:

    Feature: Demo
    
      Scenario: Create user
        Given User creation form management
        When Create user with name &quot;TEST&quot;
        Then User is created successfully

Java class with steps definitions:

    public class CreateUserSteps {
    
       private String userName;
    
       @Given(&quot;^User creation form management$&quot;)
       public void User_creation_form_management() throws Throwable {
          // ...
       }
    
       @When(&quot;^Create user with name \&quot;([^\&quot;]*)\&quot;$&quot;)
       public void Create_user_with_name(String userName) throws Throwable {
          //...
          this.userName = userName;
       }
    
       @Then(&quot;^User is created successfully$&quot;)
       public void User_is_created_successfully() throws Throwable {
          // Assert if exists an user with name equals to this.userName
       }

My question is if it is a good practice to share information between steps? Or would be better to define the feature as:

    Then User with name &quot;TEST&quot; is created successfully
