As little as they need.  I, as  a general rule, only grant to the objects they are actually using.  One way to look at it is you will always know which grants to move over to test and prod.  Now, the group I work with grant select on any table which I have mixed feelings about.  With the amount of tables we are dealing with it sure makes life easier.  Most of them do not need to even update the application tables as batch loads take care of that (for the most part).

Subject: Developer access in test database

In our test databases, I have always granted select,insert,update,delete any table to the developers.
 
While yesterday, one updated a "sys" table.
 
Be non-production, I always felt if it is destroyed can always be recreated.
 
What table privileges do you grant in "test".
