Refactoring is giving a undefined method error

[sswaroopgupta]

Expected Behavior
Refactoring should not give us an error

Actual Behavior
Getting the following error with parameter mismatch in step annotation and implementation.

Cannot perform refactoring: undefined method `children' for nil:NilClass 

Steps to replicate

1. Create a spec

Specification Heading
=====================
ability to add product
----------------------
tags: shopping basket

* Add "product" to basket1

1. Create an implementation with parameter mismatch

step 'Add <product> to basket1' do 
  puts product
  assert_equal(product, 'product')
  assert_equal(name, 'Gauge')
end

1. refactor from the command line

gauge --refactor "Add \"product\" to basket1" "Add \"product\" to basket2"

getting the above error.

Unable to reproduce this with latest HEAD. Could you try doing:

$ bundle
$ bundle exec gauge --refactor "Add \"product\" to basket1" "Add \"product\" to basket2"

With bundle exec gauge refactor "Add \"product\" to basket1" "Add \"product\" to basket2"

• the spec file is not changed
• In the implementation file step annotation text changes to Add instead of the entire text.
