Unfortunately, this is not always possible. For example, in our environment, every developer has their own work environment (CFEclipse, Apache, multi instance CF) on their workstations, we have a single staging server, and a multi-server n-tier production environment. I don't see how it's possible to have an identical configuration with production, unless we want to spend a lot of money for servers that will just be sitting there (even with virtualization, we would have to buy a pretty powerful server, and Windows licenses for every virtual machine as well as the host). This is just not practical for our shop and I suspect for most other small shops out there.
