OK let me see if I've got your set up straight:
the production server has domains set up as virtual hosts > www.client.com
but your test box is test up as www.testbox.com/~client
if this is the case then it is very easy to set up virtual hosts on apache
so you can exactly mimic the production server.
add each virtual domin to the /etc/hosts
x.x.x.x www.client1.com
x.x.x.x www.client2.com
etc. where x.x.x.x is your test box's ip address
then add a virtual host segment to your http.conf file for each domain
(example below)
also add this line to http.conf
NameVirtualHost x.x.x.x
restart apache and your good to go.
<VirtualHost www.client1.com>
ServerAdmin webmaster@ client1.com
ServerName www.client1.com
DocumentRoot/home/websites/client1
ErrorLog logs/www.client1.com-error_log
TransferLog logs/www.client1.com-access_log
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php
DirectoryIndex welcome.html welcome.php index.html index.htm
<Directory /home/websites/client1>
Options FollowSymlinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo Indexes Limit Options
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
