Comment(by neena):

 I wrote [https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/blob/HEAD:/test/util.py
 this] for testing stream-handling methods. There's a method that does
 SOCKS negotiation, and another that gets the IP over the SOCKS negotiated
 circuit using a third party website.

 I wrote the latter to check if the path selected was being used. (compare
 the exit node's IP with the IP returned by this method).

 Is this sufficient? If not, this could be a good starting point.
