# Previewing a URL Redirect Test

You can preview any test directly in your browser with Shoplift's **Preview Mode**. Preview Mode can be used on draft, active, and ended tests.

### Using Preview Mode

On a given test draft or report, hover over your variant preview and select **View in Browser**. This opens Preview Mode in a new tab.

When using preview mode, you can experience your test as a website visitor would.

### Switching Between Variants

At the bottom of the preview window, you’ll see a toolbar that lets you switch between:

* **Original (A**) – your current experience
* **Variant (B)** – your test experience

You can navigate across your site while the preview is active to see how each page looks when assigned to the A or B variant.

### Exiting Preview Mode

To return to your live site, simply select Exit in the toolbar.
