Test Step templates for reuse in several test cases

Hello everyone!

I would like to know if there is a way to generate templates for test steps, and thus reuse and optimize the process of creating and maintaining test cases. 

Currently we are using a "Test Templates" folder, where we define test cases with the steps we need for our test cases. To create new cases this is great, the problem arises when we edit one of the steps of these "Test templates", because this modification is not transferred to the test cases where they have been used. 
Is there any way to refresh those test cases with the modifications made in the Test Templates?
If not, are you planning to implement a feature to have test steps templates in future versions of Spiratest?

Thanks in advance!
BR, Fran

Hi Fran

I believe (if I understand correctly) we have that feature, we called them Linked Test Case Steps:
