IBM WebSphere: Deployment and Advanced Configuration

Chapter 16. Ideal Development and Testing Environments

NOTE The content of this chapter is reprinted from an article originally published in the IBM WebSphere Technical Journal in December 2003 by Keys Botzum and Wayne Beaton. The article has been modified to match the formatting of this book, and some minor edits have been made for consistency with this book. The article is otherwise unchanged in content. As a result, some material here may overlap with other portions of the book, but we felt that the article provided a nice synthesis of most of the key reasons for the various environments and chose to reuse it here.
