Starting of webstart clients not possible from developer

I was wondering if there was any possible way of starting a smart client session from a remote computer against my currently running copy of developer?
Perhaps I'm doing it wrong but my current workflow to test code changes means I have to...
export from developer -> import into application server -> test (and realize my script isn't just quite right yet >:-|) -> make changes -> repeat

Am I doing this right? Is there a way to cut out the first two steps?

export from developer -> import into application server
I think this is where you create too much work.
I assume we are talking version 4 here btw.

When you changed your solution you can commit it to the repository.
When this is done you can stop developer and run the application server on the same machine.
This way you can test the clients remotely...

Or did I miss something? Otherwise I hope this helps :)

Yes, that was exactly what I was looking for, thanks! :D

Sometimes you start doing something one way for a long time for some odd reason or another, and never really stop to really think about another (or the right) way.
