Every time I see this I wonder why Apache/Windows is such a black sheep.
I have a test Apache server running on every single Windows workstation
I have access to. Having a local test environment for doing sandbox
development is critical as far as I'm concerned. Everywhere I've worked
as a web developer (ASP, JSP, PHP, etc over the last ~10 years), we've
actively used local environments configured to emulate production
environments, done our development or changes in those local
environments, committed the changes to the repository and published to a
development/test server from the source code control tool. That's
included small shops as well as at least 3 Fortune 500 companies.
Incidentally, I run my SVN repository through a Windows/Apache
installation and have had absolutely no problems. The box is behind a
hardware firewall, only accessible from localhost via SSH tunnel and
stays up for months with no problem (my electricity is less reliable).
