SharePoint - Sharepoint development without sharepoint server

I'm new to sharepoint, i have a simple question but i can't figure the
answer.

To build a customized web application based on sharepoint, Do i need
to install sharepoint server ?

In other words, can i use only the following components to build and
deploy sharepoint application...
Windows server 2003 with sharepoint services.
Visual studio 2005 with sharepoint extension.
.NET framework 3.0
IIS to host the developed application

I think you can develop using the listed item but how would you test
it?

  Gary A. Bushey replied...

The environment you have listed has SharePoint...SharePoint Services (full
name is Windows SharePoint Services aka WSS) is the basis that Microsoft
Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) is built on.  MOSS extends WSS by providing
additional features like Audiences and MySites but you easily develop on a
WSS environment
