Michael I'm late to the party, but looking at the most common complaints when it comes to browsers, in addition to the current tests it would be useful to run all tests at the same time in separate tabs. On top of that, open each test 5-10 times while you're at it. Though I'm not sure how easy/hard it is for PTS to do this. Keep an eye on memory usage, too.

Just press ALT and then "View -> Toolbars -> Menu Bar" if you don't see it.

Firefox 57 is "old".
Why didn't you just use the latest Firefox 58 Nightly like I did?
Here's the PPA for it:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozill...ive/ubuntu/ppa
It installs separately next to Firefox. It uses "firefox-trunk" as the name instead of "firefox", so both can co-exist on one system.
