/**
 * This class is a step handler that does nothing.

 * This class is provided as a convenience for users who are only
 * interested in the final state of an integration and not in the
 * intermediate steps. Its handleStep method does nothing.
 *
 * Since this class has no internal state, it is implemented using
 * the Singleton design pattern. This means that only one instance is
 * ever created, which can be retrieved using the getInstance
 * method. This explains why there is no public constructor.
