I recommend either Aptana Studio (http://www.aptana.com) or Geany (apt-get install geany) for developing sites and testing in localhost running a local install of Apache or nginx.

I prefer Aptana these days as it is more feature rich. Of course you will need to install OpenJDK 6 or 7 (go with 7) before Aptana. Geany is lighter in resources, so it is all down to personal preference.

Oh and they are both free software under the GPL.
