Free VMs for Internet Explorer/Edge testing

Screen Shot 2016-02-09 at 5.53.01 PMHere’s a great resource to be aware of: Microsoft maintains a collection of freely-downloadable VMs, for a variety of OS/VM platforms, that enable you to test your web development against different combinations of MS Windows/IE.

Options available for Windows, Mac and Linux-centric VM hosts!

Run Internet Explorer on Mac OS X

This is a great tip; can’t believe I never stumbled onto it before: basically, download and install the free VirtualBox virtual machine system and then download a prepackaged version of IE to run within it. No standalone OS install or anything.

Brilliant!
