I'd add here also testing for:
- install, remove & re-install package (maybe also upgrade)
- run lintian on the packages (outside of sbox) and fix relevant
reported packaging issues:
lintian *.deb
- test the software when run under Valgrind to see whether that
reports any memory handling issues:
fakeroot apt-get install valgrind maemo-debug scripts
run-with-memcheck <app>
(relevant for C & C++ code, not for interpreted stuff)
- Eero
