We create user stories at the beginning of each project, and our goal
is for this to be turned into acceptance tests.  It's a good sanity
check, since an unspecific or overly-broad user story can't easily be
tested, and a too-granular user story isn't an appropriate acceptance
test.

This is one of the big values that engineers provide to UX and
product:  are the user stories real and actionable, or are they too
hand-wavy?
