Is there any tool or procedure to clone test installation over
production (deployed for users) installation.
In typical development enviroment we have development, testing and live
installations. And the components are moved from one to the other along
with development cycle.
I thing I should be applied also to developing portal in SPS.

What do you thing? What is your practice?

In Microsoft's 2002/2003 world, that was the role that Content Management
Server had.

With this (CMS) being combined with SPS to product the next version MOSS
2007 I think we can safely say it will be in that product.

MOSS will combine the content management features of CMS. For now, you can
still use the same process for file system based changes like style sheets
and web parts. For things like Areas and content in document libraries, you
pretty much have to recreate in produciton manually.

But how could I easily clone (port, replicate) current installation of
SPS on other machine.
With or without the contents?
