Not dozen, only   2~3 but code independent .My choices are
1) xpdf (same codebase of luatex)
2)acroread (the most important  viewer for pdf )
3) ghostscript (also used by context )
They are all used / important for TeX community and printing house.

mupdf comes from ghostscript team , it's quick but young,
it comes with some interesting cmdline tools .
Until now I was not able to use it as viewer in everyday use,
so I don't know if it's good or not for checking pdf made by luatex
I believe that Taco  knows mupdf better than me.
