Default Tips on troubleshooting no start condition

OK so the deal is, my jeep has been rough to start and now doesnt start every time i try to get it going. It either does start or I hear a very very faint whir for a few seconds then nothing. I know it is either the starter, solenoid, or ignition ?sensor?. I need to know how to test the starter and solenoid and if anyone has tips for removing the starter/solenoid.

1996 Jeep Cherokee I6, new cps, ignition coil, spark plugs, rotor, battery.
