Editions can't be changed (at least not by us). You will make your development on a developer org (which is quite close to an Enterprise Edition) and you can sign up for it here for free:

Later you will deploy your results into your group edition, e.g. a package. You have to know and respect the limits of the group edition and I you use stuff which is not supported by GE, you will either not be able to install the package or get runtime errors.

If you need a kind of test-environment where all the limits of group edition will apply, you can do it either in a Trial or in a Test-Org which you can create in the partner portal, or in the environment hub (if you are a Salesforce Partner).

However in the Group Edition all the "good stuff" is not available, so there is not much to develop beside a few custom objects and custom fields...
