Is there a way to export the data on my AppEngine database to the development server (for testing purposes etc.) ?

Not yet it seems

Of course you can go pulling the data yourself, one batch at a time...

Yes! Check out Google's "Uploading and Downloading Data"

If you'd like to test how your data works with the app before uploading it, you can load it into the development server. Use the --url option to point the tool at the development server URL. For example:

 appcfg.py upload_data --config_file=album_loader.py --filename=album_data.csv --kind=Album --url=http://localhost:8080/remote_api <app-directory>

The subsection on uploading and downloading all data is also worth looking at.

I don't think that's what he was asking, I think he was asking for a way to get the data *off* of Google's servers and onto his local machine.

The way it works is that you first download all the data from app engine, and then you "upload" it into your development server.
