Went through verification using the latest Nightly build from the following location:
- http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2014-04-25-03-02-09-mozilla-central/

Went through test cases listed below using the following OS's:
- OSX 10.9.2
- Win 8.1 Updated x64
- Ubuntu 13.10 x64

- Once nightly was installed, checked about:config and ensured that "experiments.enabled = true" by default
- Set "experiments.logging.level = 0" so that logging information relating to the experiments appear in the Browser Console
- Set "experiments.force-sample-value = 0.25" since the current experiment in Nightly is using a 25% sample
- Enabled/Disabled the "experiments.enabled" preference and ensured that the experiment was installed via the Browser Console
- Checked about:addons and ensured that the "Experiments" container was created and visible
- Ensured that the experiment was visible inside the "Experiments" container using the "Active Bullet"
- Checked about:support and ensured that "Active = true" under the "Experiment Section"
