About testing server

["Stephen Seng" <webforumsuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hai, i am a Dreamweaver beginner. I have a question about testing server. If i 
set up a remote folder to remote web server, then where should i set up testing 
server? Is it possible to set up in local computer? 
 Another question is if i have my own domain name without any web hosting 
service, and i would like to set up web server in local computer, is it 
possible to use my own domain name to build up own website? If yes, by how? 
Just fill in the blank of HTTP address in defining local info?
