I've built a shell around the bitcoind JSON-RPC, along with a websockets server that provides realtime transaction and block feeds which can be used with bitcoin mainnet and testnet as well as any of the alt chains and formats it similar to blockchain.info with the bootstrap look-and-feel, i.e. http://altcoins.ws/dogecoin/

A goal of this project was simplicity in deployment to a new server.

The JSON-RPC is missing address indexing and an "unspent" API, so these things are still missing from this shell.

Great!

There is another one at http://testnet.btclook.com/ which provides a different view as well.

And another at:

http://test.webbtc.com/

Testnet does not currently fully function with for creating transactions:

http://test.webbtc.com/

Because there's no "unspent" API for getting the unspent values for an address.  If there existed a testnet explorer which would send out those values (as blockchain.info does with the main net), that would be awesome.

I'm also working on a testnet explorer with semantic web markup so that it's both human and machine readable.

For a long time the only block explorer for testnet has been the original blockexplorer.com, which is unfortunately often broken / behind / slow and not really maintained any more.

There is now a new one, here:

https://www.biteasy.com/testnet/blocks

There's also a REST/JSON API for it.

Please note one curiosity of this block explorer is that the coinbase tx doesn't necessarily come first in the listing (it's sorted by "time received", see).

Other interesting thing to note: this site is built using bitcoinj. The author can be contacted on IRC sometimes using the nick damethos.
