timsieved has a logfile under /kolab/var/imapd/log/

e. g. sivtest -u uid -a uid -w pass <server ip>
AFAIK sivtest is only good to test the authentication. You can't use
it to upload scripts etc.

A good tool to start with may also be sieveshell 

Sometimes I do heavy debugging of single cyrus daemons.
Therefore I modify cyrus.conf to prefork a process of the relevant
service and attach later with strace -p <pid>. Then I can somewhat 
see what the daemon does for incoming connections.
