I hate being forgotten in testing discussions. Stem provides rather
extensive integration testing targeted at Tor's controller interface.

https://stem.torproject.org/

To run it simply...

git clone https://git.torproject.org/stem.git
cd stem
./run_tests.py --integ

Help expanding the tests even further would be greatly appreciated. -Damian
