Test Action Sampler in JMeter 5.0

Question

I have a requirement in JMeter (version 5.0), I have multiple thread groups in my Test Plan. 2nd Thread Group should start execution only after few seconds of, 1st Thread Group get started. And same like remaining thread groups.

Here I couldn't see Test Action Sampler plugin in JMeter version 5.0.

Does any other suggestions / way to achieve this task ?

Test Action Sampler was renamed to Flow Control Action (with more features)

For delaying a Thread Group you can also use Startup Delay:

Thread Group also provides a scheduler. Click the checkbox at the bottom of the Thread Group panel to enable/disable extra fields in which you can enter the duration of test, the startup delay, the start and end times of the run. You can configure Duration (seconds) and Startup Delay (seconds) to control the duration of each thread group and the after how much seconds it starts. When the test is started, JMeter will wait Startup Delay (seconds) before starting the Threads of the Thread Group and run for the configured Duration (seconds) time.

Since JMeter 5.0 it's called Flow Control Action

Going forward pay attention to JMeter Changelog and the history of previous changes
