Hosting IIS site on local company Network

There are 3 people working on a project, one of which is working on a wcf service, is it possible for him to create an IIS site on his machine locally to host the service and allow the other members to access that service/site on his machine if we are on our company shared Network? I'm trying to see whats the best way to host this service on a test server so the other members can test it out as well without any bugs.

To answer your question directly: yes, this is possible. I have performed this exact setup by hosting a web site on a local laptop. We have been able to access the site from dozens of computers on the same network successfully.

Oh yes, that's the most common way of hosting WCF service. Under project properties of your WCF service just select "Web" and then "Use local IIS server"
