I know my hosting provider puts the document root for the virtual host in the document root of the main host. So I can look at it via http://mainhost.domain.com/<docroot-of-subhost>. Personally I don't like this at all. You could also create a /etc/host file entry on the server running your virtual host, configure an Apache proxy server on that host (different port) and configure that proxy to forward all the requests to your new virtual host, at which time it will utilize the alias in your /etc/hosts file.
It's easier than that. Simply configure your browser to use the test server as its proxy server. Then whatever request you make, it will be directed through the test server, and the test server will try to match it with each of the name-based virtual hosts.
