### Step Implementation — Java

```java
import com.thoughtworks.gauge.Step;
import com.thoughtworks.gauge.Table;

public class LoginSteps {
    WebDriver driver;

    @Step("Navigate to login page")
    public void navigateToLogin() {
        driver.get("http://localhost:3000/login");
    }

    @Step("Enter email <email>")
    public void enterEmail(String email) {
        driver.findElement(By.id("email")).sendKeys(email);
    }

    @Step("Enter password <password>")
    public void enterPassword(String password) {
        driver.findElement(By.id("password")).sendKeys(password);
    }

    @Step("Click login button")
    public void clickLogin() {
        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("button[type='submit']")).click();
    }

    @Step("Verify dashboard is displayed")
    public void verifyDashboard() {
        assertTrue(driver.getCurrentUrl().contains("/dashboard"));
    }
}

Step Implementation — Python

from getgauge.python import step
from selenium import webdriver

@step("Navigate to login page")
def navigate_to_login():
    driver.get("http://localhost:3000/login")

@step("Enter email <email>")
def enter_email(email):
    driver.find_element_by_id("email").send_keys(email)

@step("Click login button")
def click_login():
    driver.find_element_by_css_selector("button[type='submit']").click()
