## Intent
|
|
Servant is used for providing some behavior to a group of classes.
|
|
Instead of defining that behavior in each class - or when we cannot factor out
|
|
this behavior in the common parent class - it is defined once in the Servant.
|
|

## Applicability
|
|
Use the Servant pattern when
|
|
|
|
* When we want some objects to perform a common action and don't want to define this action as a method in every class.
