my approach is a little bit different: When I think I've changed enough, I use 

svn-buildpackage -S -sa --svn-ignore [-us -uc]

to build a sourcepackage in build-area. Then I run a little script [1] which 
does the following: 
1) run pdebuild
2) run lintian on the resulting debs
3) run piuparts

While I wouldn't exactly encourage ppl. to use the script (it's written bad 
and does stuff in a nasty way), doing the aforementioned steps saved me quite 
a few times from uploading broken stuff.

However I recently learned that 
4) test whatever you want uploaded

should be always done as well (I don't have a script for this yet *g*)

HTH,
     Stefan.
