+Feature: A teacher can export a question as XML from the preview question screen
+  To help reuse questions
+  As a teacher
+  I can easily export the question I am previewing
+
+  Background:
+    Given the following "users" exist:
+      | username |
+      | teacher  |
+    And the following "courses" exist:
+      | fullname | shortname |
+      | Course 1 | C1        |
+    And the following "course enrolments" exist:
+      | user    | course | role           |
+      | teacher | C1     | editingteacher |
+    And the following "question categories" exist:
+      | name           | contextlevel | reference |
+      | Test questions | Course       | C1        |
+    And the following "questions" exist:
+      | questioncategory | qtype     | name                          |
+      | Test questions   | numerical | Test question to be previewed |
+
+  Scenario: Question preview shows the question and other information
+    When I am on the "Test question to be previewed" "core_question > preview" page logged in as teacher
+    Then the state of "What is pi to two d.p.?" question is shown as "Not yet answered"
+    And "Download this question in Moodle XML format" "link" should exist
