Consuming builders

Core to a Screenplay Performance are Performables. Getting these performables is easiest when using a builder. This results in clear, human-readable code inside your performance.

The entry point to most builders is a static class which exposes factory methods for the performables which it supports. These are easiest to consume with a using static directive, such as:

using static MyNamespace.Builders.MyBuilderEntryPoint;

This means that the methods of the static entry point class may be used in the positions where a performable is required, such as the following.

using static DrinksNamespace.DrinksBuilder;

await actor.PerformAsync(MakeACupOf("Coffee"), cancellationToken);

In the example above, the fictitious MakeACupOf method is a static method of the fictitious DrinksBuilder static entry-point class.
