add rule for too many steps in test case

[guykisel]

Based on https://code.google.com/p/robotframework/wiki/HowToWriteGoodTestCases#Workflow_tests

"Max 10 steps, preferably less"

Example output:

W: 173, 0: Too many steps (13) in test case (TooManyTestSteps)

I'd like to include this rule, but I want it to be configurable. (see Configurable Rules on the wiki). I'll be glad to make it configurable if you want, or you can do it yourself. All you need to do is add a configure method that takes a string as a parameter and sets the maximum number allowed. You can see the otherRules.py:LineTooLong rule for an example.

Sorry it took so long for me to respond.

[guykisel]

No problem. I'll make the necessary changes.

@boakley have you pushed the support for configurable rules to github yet? I can't find it in the project source, other than the reference you linked on the wiki.

[boakley]

My bad. I didn't realize I had a bunch of stuff I hadn't pushed. It should
be there now.

Cool, thanks!

@boakley I've implemented configurableness. If it looks to you like I've done it correctly, I'll do the same for my other rule PR.

[boakley]

Cool. I'll try to take a look at it this weekend.
