Create reusable Step Groups so shared journeys stay in sync across Flows.
A Step Group is a reusable set of Test Steps. Build a login, consent, or setup journey once, drop the group into other Flows, and keep every usage in sync when you edit it.
Use the Flow Builder for this walkthrough.
Open a Flow in the Flow Builder and select the Test Steps that should travel together.
Hold Shift and drag to box-select, or hold Ctrl (Windows) or Cmd (Mac) and click to add steps. Start from the steps after Open. Open stays at the start of the Flow.
A typical login selection looks like set credentials, submit, and MFA when you need it:

Right-click the selection and choose Create Group. You can also press Ctrl+G or Cmd+G.
DoesQA replaces the selected steps with one Step Group on the canvas.

Pro tip: Hold Shift while dragging to select several Test Steps at once, then press Ctrl+G or Cmd+G to group them.
Double-click a Step Group to change its Name or the Test Steps inside it.
Saving a Step Group updates every Flow that uses it. That is the point of reuse: fix the group once, and every journey that depends on it stays aligned.
Removing a Step Group from one Flow only removes that instance. The shared group remains available for other Flows.
Open the destination Flow in the Flow Builder.
Open the Test Step library.
Find the group under Step Groups.
Drag it onto the canvas where the shared journey should run.
A Flow that reuses login often looks like Open, then the Step Group, then a Check:

Open Assets → Groups to review every Step Group in the account.
From there you can:
Edit a group
Duplicate Step Group to create a copy
Delete Step Group when nothing still uses it
See which Flows use a group
You can also open the same list from the Flow Builder with Manage Step Groups.
Prefer a Step Group when you need the same steps. Prefer DoesQA Run when you need to share a live session into child Runs. See Reuse a login session.
