Hi,
As per my understanding, JAWS and NVDA behavior differently because of two facts
1. JAWS make some guess work in some situations like unlabeled forms
2. ARIA support is at different levels in both screen- readers
So, I think JAWS is likely to skip the errors easily catchable by freely available automated accessibility testing tools like AXE, a- inspector.
So, Is to test with automated tools first and then with JAWS, a better approach?

Sorry, you should test NVDA and Jaws on both of those browsers.

NvDA has been enhanced to work better with Firefox then IE. Jaws works better with IE and does work extremely well with Firefox.
