You're *probably* testing 1 of the following 3 things:

1) That Snort detects known exploits it has a fingerprint for. Just letting it
watch a wire that has Nessus or Metasploit pumping out exploits will likely
test that.

2) That Snort detects things *similar* to things it has a fingerprint for (and
additionally, if it false-positives on things it shouldn't).

3) That Snort doesn't itself get blown up by a malicious packet that claims to
be an RPC, but which contains malformed code designed to exploit Snort's
decoder functions.

Knowing what to recommend is dependent on what exactly you're testing....
