Add-on/LUA development outside of WoW

[Shathus]

I had searched for it awhile back, and I'm guessing the answer is still no, but is there any-way to write add-ons and test them without actually being in the game?

I'm sure without some kind of emulator this might be impossible due to the all the base game API calls and such, but just wasn't sure what options there might be.

Still no. Unless you count a private server, but I won't go into that here.
