It depends what feature you're working on.

We typically write unit tests to test individual functions or well-defined 
components.
See tor/src/test for the existing source files.
The unit tests can be run using "make test" or for a more comprehensive set, 
"make check".
You can even run individual tests by running the test binary with the test name.

chutney is slow, but it's used for whole-program and whole-network integration 
tests.
