Step 3: Scenario syntax validation - There are 2 further options to enable basic syntax validation for manual and automated tests.  As a minimum, we recommend you set syntax validation on for Automated tests. 

Step 4: Independent scenario execution - When enabled the manual scenario execution status can be managed independently for each user story. Further details can be found at Test Execution status for User Stories

Step 5: AssertThat Test Plan - used to manage, execute and report on tests grouped together, typically used for regression / release cycles.
