Just type "C-u C-h t hebrew RET", and you have your sample.  Most of
it is R2L lines, with some L2R lines at the end.

As for testing, I think it's quite straightforward:

 . the initial position of the thumb in a R2L line should be all the
   way to the left

 . clicking on the arrows at scroll-bar edges should cause the text to
   move in the direction you'd expect: to the right when you click on
   the arrow pointing leftward, and to the left when you click the
   other arrow.

 . likewise dragging the thumb: it should cause text to move in the
   direction opposite to the one you drag

You might see some abnormal scrolling in R2L lines that begin with a
TAB character.  This is a bug in hscrolling such lines, which I
already fixed on the emacs-24 branch, so it will soon be merged to the
trunk.  It has nothing to do with the horizontal scroll bars.
