ScenarioContext.Current vs Context Injection in Specflow

Within ScenarioContext in SpecFlow, there are two distinct ways to share data between steps in a scenario: context injection and current injection. Both approaches accomplish the same goal, but they are implemented differently. ScenarioContext.Current: A static attribute of the ScenarioContext class in SpecFlow is called ScenarioContext.Current. It offers a method for storing and retrieving data from various steps in the same scenario. By putting values in the scenario context during one step and retrieving them in another, you can use ScenarioContext.Current to communicate data between steps. Example: While ScenarioContext.Current is convenient, it has some drawbacks, such as being static and potentially leading to difficulties with running scenarios in parallel . Therefore, w ith SpecFlow 3.0, ScenarioContext.Current is marked obsolete.     Context Injection: Context injection allows you to use the step class's constructor to directly inject the scenario conte
