I use the explicit variables in MC which find probably 80% of all 
bugs due to misnamed variables, send messages not formated
correctly... Again, this is a great feature I praise for solid scripts...

Check every menu feature from left to right... Or from feature priority
down... Up to you...

Then I give my stack to my mom and she'll do the weirdest things a user 
can
do trying to figure it out and show me about another 50% of errors or 
unclear
features.... ;))

Another way is to write down the feature list before doing the stack and 
then
checking each one after... Keep a log and check continually. Most 
important
is to recheck after the stack is finished to make sure any last mod doesnt 
affect
previously working scripts... This is lengthier but it's very solid...
