No, this test case does not take into account the following failures: 1.) the firebug panel fails to be enabled when launching new firefox windows by going to File->New Window in Firefox. Defect.
2.) the firebug panel-reopens every time you navigate to a new page. There is no configuration affordance or set of options that will allow firebug to be enabled (i.e. script, network, or other data monitoring), but not UI-invasive when not needed. This is a regression design decision. A user story would be: I really want to have firebug monitoring all network requests but not be visible until I determine there has been a need to view the webpage, for instance to check on AJAX requests, or some similar need to view all the requests a webpage has made from the first load to when the panel has been opened.
