It'll take some time, because it'll need to fetch the base precise32 box if you don't already have it. Once it's done, you should be able to browse to http://127.0.0.1/w/ and see a vanilla MediaWiki install, served by the guest VM. If you need to destroy and recreate the VM in the future, it should go much faster, because vagrant will save the base image.
It'd be nice to integrate this with a build tool (Makefile, rake, grunt, etc.) to give command-line shortcuts for running unit tests.
Andrew, I borrowed from your labs MediaWiki manifests heavily, but did not use them directly, because I was worried about getting tangled up in a web of Puppet requirements. It'd be nicer by far to add operations/puppet as a submodule and simply refer Vagrant to that.
Again, I am a bit stretched at the moment, so I'd be very glad for someone to ownership of this, if it proves useful.
