One of my problems with this approach is my heavy usage of export/collect. A significant portion of my problems only surface after more than one node has exported resources AND another one has collected them. For me that means that a serious setup will have to have a live testing environment that has instances of all live services and integrates all recent changes from the developers. Changes that have survived a few days without killing the testing environment then can be rolled out into production. For my personal systems I just develop in the "development" environment and manually test on the live servers with "puppetd --test --environment=development --noop" until I'm satisfied. Which, I have to admit is not very rigorous. But then, I'm a one-man, few-nodes outfit and can cut corners, others can't cut.
