Basically you need a worflow to develop your own modules and testing odoo ?

Local:

* use virtualenvwrapper for each odoo version
* my own modules put on diferent directory it helps to pull from odoo repo
w/o cry. (git help me too)
* different DBs to each module testing

Yes travis is good, runbot is dedicated tool for odoo so everybody
recommend its use, we use it locally but python test is not running and you
get travis for that.

Write test is the best way IMO there is no much test cases in odoo we need
to write more and PR so IDK if policy accept new tests on stable releases
(specially v8.0 is RC1).
