Running Windows desktop tests from Linux with disposable VMs

what is the minimum license that I would need to do this legally, with just one or two VMs?

Not to dismiss this, but when I was working on a problem on Windows recently my LLM (6.1 Sol / oh-my-pi) ended up doing the same thing, although it used Qemu and snapshots to accomplish that.

Eventually it got to a point it could iterate very quickly and was really only constrained by total system RAM which meant a dozen at most copies could be running simultaneously.

We’ve been providing a similar approach with disposable VMs and emulators/simulators since 2014 at TestingBot. We run our own single-use QEMU VMs with Windows and Linux.

We used several different LLM's and our own skills to build out some novel approaches to document creation with new workflows using QEMU in Linux after upgrading our desktops to Ubuntu from Windows 11.

Nothing new here. VM + WebRTC + warm pool to absorb boot time

Why is the comments from the OP marked as flagged or dead at the bottom?

Why not use snapshots/save states so the VMs start back up right away? This is what I do with QEMU.
