How to test in IE with Linux

Don't bother trying to run it under Wine - such a test would be invalid anyway.

Just install Windows in a VM. It's easy.


I'm on linux and using VirtualBox and various Windows images sourced from https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/

They're supplying old windows versions with updated license which super seeds the default. Meaning you can restore an image back to its 30 day trail indefinitely.

I use the same system at work on OSX

EDIT: The original answer was referencing this page with the images: http://www.modern.ie/en-us/virtualization-tools#downloads


I've used this website very sparingly (when I didn't have a Windows machine with IE Tester). It eventually costs a subscription fee, but you can do a free trial, as well.
