+Step arguments are fixtures as well!
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Step arguments are injected into pytest `request` context as normal fixtures with the names equal to the names of the
+arguments. This opens a number of possibilies:
+
+* you can access step's argument as a fixture in other step function just by mentioning it as an argument (just like any othe pytest fixture)
+* if the name of the step argument clashes with existing fixture, it will be overridden by step's argument value; this way you can set/override the value for some fixture deeply inside of the fixture tree in a ad-hoc way by just choosing the proper name for the step argument.
