If one wants to test PHP modules against HTML code browsed on a local

Well... If you point your browser to file:///some/file, then apache
will not get involved at all, as the browser will read the file
directly from the file system.
Thus, PHP code will not be executed at all.
If you want to test PHP code locally, you're probably better off
enabling the "userdir" module in apache (as well as PHP, obviously),
put your PHP (or HTML or whatever) files in $HOME/public_html/, and
point your browser to http://localhost/~your-login-name .
If you have PHP (cli) 5.4 or later installed, it has a built-in web
server for this sort of testing.
cd into the directory where your php files are and enter
php -S localhost:8000
The webserver will start listening on port 8000 on localhost only and
report all activity to your terminal until you press Ctrl-C.
Then point your browser at http:localhost:8000/yourfile.php
