Link backtrace to the feature file line

[jsa34]

Hello!

I didn't want to raise as an issue for a few reasons, but sought to try and understand first more context.

I find annoying sometimes identifying which test step has failed in a test, and to some degree which test scenario (when gherkin terminal reporter is off) as the link between an error and the step/scenario within the feature file that it originates from are not clear when running from the IDE.

Is there a possibility of linking the top of the backtrace to the originating step in the scenario's feature file? I am not sure of the difficulties in doing so and haven't dug around to see if I'm honest, so thought I would ask.

Happy to have a look if some pointers are given as this is a part of Cucumber Java I miss when diagnosing errors.

Example current backtrace:

venv\Lib\site-packages\pytest_bdd\scenario.py:183 (test_example_scenario)
request = <FixtureRequest for <Function test_applicant_just_an_example>>
_pytest_bdd_example = {}

    def scenario_wrapper(request: FixtureRequest, _pytest_bdd_example: dict[str, str]) -> Any:
        scenario = templated_scenario.render(_pytest_bdd_example)

A pytest_bdd_step_error hook could be used for additional reporting. Is it reasonable for your issue?
