All the steps with DocString throws exception listed below when I start
using the default JacksonTableTransformer as explained here here
<https://cucumber.io/blog/2018/09/24/announcing-cucumber-jvm-4-0-0>. This
works when I don't use the default JacksonTableTransformer.

Thanks Aslak for the reply. Do you have any suggestion on how to by pass
this problem.Appreciate your help!

I have an alternate way to loop through all my customized cucumber data
table objects but some of them has a need to ignore enum value which I am
not able to do when directly doing defineDataTableType that I am able to do
when using Jackson's object mapper. If you have a suggestion there as well
that would be a great help.

Thanks,
Ani
