I wouldn't recommend VAJ with WebSphere Test Environment.  It simply
doesn't work for me: session has problems, and servlets are not
initialized during startup.  I posted my problems on IBM's newsgroups
but nobody from IBM answered regarding VAJ/WTE.

Although I just started using New Atlanta's ServletExecDebugger
recently, I highly recommend it.  Everything is exactly the same as
when you deploy it, ie, in production.  The only minor thing I
would hope for is debugging JSP inside ServletExecDebugger.
