Visual VoiceXML/VXML development tool?

Question

Does anyone know of any tools out there that will let me run and debug a VXML application visually? There are a ton of VXML development tools, but they all require you to build your application within them.

I have an existing application that uses JSPs to generate VXML, and I'm looking for a way to navigate through and debug the rendered VXML in much the same way that Firebug allows one to do this with HTML. I have some proxy-like tools that let me inspect the rendered code as it is sent to the VXML browser, but there's a ton of JS, which makes traversing the code by hand rather difficult.

Has anyone worked with a product that allows for this?

Thanks!

• There is JigSaw Test suite - has free trial license and reasonably priced.

• There is IBM's debugger - part of WebSphere Voice Toolkit.

• Many other products have debuggers - a very good summary is here
