We use vagrant with ansible to build a local dev environment and almost the same production environment from the same ansible project. We experimented with docker, but it is still extremly slow on windows and our production machine is provisioned with ansible, so vagrant is a natural fit... Very happy most of the time, only some strange ssh errors happen from time to time...

This is exactly what we do. It is like having a locally run staging environment, and is really great. Can exactly test things like http server configuration, cron jobs, multiple nodes (vagrant vms) coordinating with each other, etc.
