Any xUnit runner should do.  I use Twisted's `trial´.  Unfortunately the
repository layout is not friendly to unit testing (re-arranging it is on
my todo list), so you have to actually install your development version
in order to test it.  I typically install it to a scratch directory.  eg,

$ python setup.py install --prefix /tmp/pyOpenSSL-test
...
$ PYTHONPATH=/tmp/pyOpenSSL-test/lib/python2.5/site-packages/:$PYTHONPATH python -c 'import OpenSSL; print OpenSSL'
<module 'OpenSSL' from '/tmp/pyOpenSSL-test/lib/python2.5/site-packages/OpenSSL/__init__.pyc'>
$ PYTHONPATH=/tmp/pyOpenSSL-test/lib/python2.5/site-packages/:$PYTHONPATH trial OpenSSL
...
PASSED (successes=36)
