A group step is a grouping of steps that helps you better organize and manage your scenarios. For example, you can group a set of input and click steps to more easily identify a login action in your scenario. Group steps are also useful when you are testing a specific part of your website multiple times with different input data. Instead of re-recording the same steps for each variation, you can create a group step and then copy and paste it throughout your scenario, changing the input values as needed.
This document outlines how to create and manage group steps in your scenarios.
Creating group steps
To create a group step, select the steps you want to group and click Group in the quick actions menu.
The screenshots below show how group steps are displayed in the UI.

Expanded Group Step
Once you have created a group step, you can use it like any other step in your scenario — you can copy and paste it, enable or disable it, move it to another position in your scenario, etc.
Editing group steps
To edit the group step, including giving it a custom name, click its three-dot menu and click Edit.
Drag and drop steps to insert, remove, or rearrange them within a group
Ungrouping group steps
To ungroup a group step, select the group step and click Ungroup in the quick action menu. This simply removes the grouping — it does not delete the steps within the group step.
Shared group steps
You can also reuse group steps across different scenarios by converting them to shared group steps. For more information, see Shared group steps.
