How do I get polymorphic tests working with cucumber-jvm, cucumber-serenity and SerenityObjectFactory

I found an interesting blog explaining in general how to realize polymorphic step definitions using cucumber bdd and picocontainer dependency injection. You can visit the blog here

Where I get stuck is not knowing how to keep the automation logic behind a "generic" interface and then provide two different implementations, One that talks directly to the domain model for unit-integration testing, and another one that uses Selenium WebDriver for UI-testing.

Can someone give me advise/skeleton how to implement this. I can't thank you enough for helping the community.

You can use a Utility class to feed the variables between classes.

For example, let's take an example of WebDriver driver initiation. 

public class ClassUtility {

    public WebDriver baseDriver; 

}

You have a class where you want to access the webDriver.

public class InventoryPage extends ClassUtility {
private ClassUtility driver;
public InventoryPage(ClassUtility driver, ClassUtility fileElementLocator, ClassUtility elementLocatorProperties, ClassUtility page) {
    this.driver= driver;
    this.page =page;
}

@When("^Open the Google Page$")
public void openInventoryPage() throws Throwable {  
    driver.baseDriver = new FirefoxDriver();
    driver.baseDriver.get("www.google.com");
}

If you have to inject to different class, do it the similar fashion. 

public class IntroductoryPage extends ClassUtility {

private ClassUtility driver;

public IntroductoryPage(ClassUtility driver, ClassUtility logger) {
    this.driver= driver;    
}

@When("^It should go to Account \"([^\"]*)\"")
public void openIntroductoryPage(String region) throws Throwable {
    driver.baseDriver.findElement(By.linkText("link")")).click();   
}

Please let me know if you need additional information. You can play around with the dependency injection as you wish.
