Luis, over the years several nested environments have been developed. At shapeblue there is a small lab that uses Trillian [1] to deploy VMs. when in the jungle you could use monkeybox [2] on your laptop. long time ago there was devcloud but I don't know if it is still used (monkeybox is kind of a successor) and "the bubble" [4] which still exists but is not actively maintained for cloudstack. If you are operating a cloud I strongly advice to keep a small mirror of your production hardware to test on. There is always these little snags that will catcha if you don't take care.
