You can preview a generated user story to verify it is ready to be synchronized with ALM or task-management tools that are used for development and test delivery.

In the **Acceptance Criteria** section, you will find a representation of the contents of the .feature file—a Gherkin-based description of the feature that will be consumed by test-automation suites. It is here that you can verify that the scenarios that make up the user story are logical and complete, and the syntax used is well-formed.

For more information regarding Gherkin-based description and ensuring the syntax is well-formed, see [Generated User Story Components](docId\:zm5GRcX2T-SZfSqFWvXKm).

To preview a user story:

1. Generate the user story for the task you wish to preview. For more information on how to generate user stories, see [Generate User Stories](docId\:Vw9eMXZw8ohqWcFBNb78I). Even if a user story already exists for the task, it is good practice to generate it to ensure latest changes are reflected.

2. Click the tasks' user story preview indicator (:inlineImage[]{src="https://files.helpdocs.io/4rdnduk17o/other/1567713669186/user-story-link-ico.png" alt caption width="18" height="16"}).

If you click the User Story Title link in a preview, the user-story artifact opens in a new tab, where its properties can be edited.
