I was always told to just roll over and look up. If there were any bubbles, then I had a leak somewhere. This is how I was taught to do a self-bubble test.

The mirror thing could be very handy also. I just returned from a dive (solo of course) and had a difficult time finding the bubbles. They were coming from my ADV connection o-ring. All it took to repair it was a slight twist, the leak stopped.

It was so close that I couldn't determine the exact location for several minutes. I thought it was the shoulder dump on my drysuit. A mirror would have be a great help for this leak.
