This is a really interesting question.

 

The approach I recommend and promote taking your code off the F5 and build an independent development environment.

 

Currently myself and others where I work have been working on a TypeScript iRule LX development framework with unit testing, code coverage and a delivery pipeline (auto compile to JS and deployment to F5)

 

The current issue we are facing is delivery to a F5 device, currently this is being done manually with copying files like Satoshi has already suggested, but working to find a better way (via iControl REST would be best) sadly this is still a work in progress so cannot help beyond what Satoshi has already provided but if you find a good way to do this would love to see your method.
