The criterion for "EVERY continuous map from $D$ to $[0, 1]$ has a continuous extension to $X$" is that any two disjoint zerosets in $D$ have disjoint closures in $T$. X$. You can find this in Chapter 6 of Gillman and Jerison's classic "Rings of Continuous Functions". They also consider the "local problem" of continuously extending a single map at length in some of the exercises, e.g. given $f:D\rightarrow Y$ (not necessarily $Y=[0, 1]$) Exercise 6G characterizes the largest subspace of $X$ to which $f$ can be continuously extended in terms of $z$-filters.
