Adding new answer handlers

Answer handlers are interfaced using AnswerActionHandler.

The lifecycle is that a question is first asked to the user and then it is polled for an answer by the Question class.

CommonHandlersFactory has a getCommonHandlers method which has all the handlers used by a Question.

You can add your handler in that method.

public static List<AnswerActionHandler> getCommonHandlers(Jira jira) {
       if(handlersMap.get(jira) == null) {
           final AnswerActionHandler answerActionHandler = new ResolveOnYes(jira);
           handlersMap.put(jira, new ArrayList<AnswerActionHandler>() {{
               add(answerActionHandler);
           }});
       }
       return handlersMap.get(jira);
   }

Create a new class similar to ResolveOnYes interfaced using ActionHandler and add it using the add method on to the list.
