Thanks, I see that the test plan included this test case albeit for this study we have deemed it enough to check permanent private browsing only at study enrollment time and not after every restart. During private browsing, we inactivate all study-related instrumentation and lie dormant until expiration or until the user disables permanent private browsing.

Of course, if the user opts out of studies in general, Normandy will end the study and uninstall the add-on.

Fixed by updating the test instructions.
