Show route works for me.

Traceroute from loopback to loopback works well for me. If you really wanted to get crazy you could setup a protocol between two remote points, like BGP.

if you're looking to make ping scripts, keep in mind that you are sitting on top of a freebsd operating system. you can drop into the shell and create a shell script.

you could also use event and op scripts in the junos cli. op script might be pretty handy actually. may be a little more complex than the tcl script, but it shouldn't be too bad.

In the lab? I just did good ole ping, and sh route and sh bgp neighbors. I think, the loopback IPs were nicely sequential and easy to remember so that it was pretty easy to bang out a couple quick pings. Plus, if my BGP is up, then I know I have 2-way reachability between router A and router Z.
