MacOS Guest for Browser Testing

Post by gp! »

Hi,

I am setting up a new mac mini for some browser testing. Primarily a windows and linux user. My goal is to configure the virtual machine to offer remote access to Safari over the local network. I've read under the known limitations that macOS guests are not a complete feature and graphics issues might be common. I am not sure if web browsing is considered graphically intense...

I am familiar with virtualbox and would like to use it. However, for offering a virtual machine used for viewing websites with safari would I be better off using Parallels?

Host is a mac mini running the latest mac operating system. The only guest for graphical use would be the same and only be used for safari.

Can anyone confirm or deny that browser surfing works reliably well at 1080p resolutions with a mac os guest on mac os host?

Thanks!
