random hints:
place repo in TOPSRCDIR/extensions
modify .mozconfig ac_add_options --enable-extensions=default,network_tests_012015
set extensions.sdk.console.logLevel to "debug"
create an xpi as a zip of the addons subdir and load that in firefox. if you wish to develop the addon, after install and shutdown, delete the xpi in your profile/extensions and link to the addon directory in the repo using the same name (but without the xpi extension). The meat of the addon, such as it is, can be found in resources/network-test/lib/main.js
