You can configure the extension under STORES / SETTINGS / CONFIGURATION and then navigate to

Now you can access MARKETING / COMMUNICATIONS / YIREO EMAIL TESTER in order to generate
the e-mail previews. Under GENERIC OPTIONS you can now do the following:
STORE SCOPE: Here you can select the store view the e-mail should be generated in.
MAIL TO: Here you can enter the e-mail address the e-mail should be addressed to.

Next under CUSTOMER VALUE you can define the customer that should be used for the e-mail by either CUSTOMER ID or by entering a search term in the CUSTOMER SEARCH input.
In PRODUCT VALUE you can define the products that should be used for the e-mail by either
PRODUCT ID (SKU) or by entering a search term in the PRODUCT SEARCH input.
