Test with Browser Isolation

Browser isolation is a technique used to test web applications in an environment that is separate from the live production system. This approach can help ensure that any issues discovered while testing are not caused by problems with the live system.
Browser isolation can also be helpful for troubleshooting and debugging web applications.

There are several ways to set up a browser isolation environment. One common approach is to use virtual machines (VMs).
A VM can be created for each browser version that needs to be tested, and the application can then be tested in those browsers using the VM as a sandbox.
Another option is to use container technology such as Docker or LXC containers.
Containers allow you to run multiple isolated instances of Linux on a single physical machine, so they can be used for testing different browser versions or configurations.
Another option is cloud services such as Amazon EC2 or Google Cloud Platform, which allow you to create temporary VMs or containers for testing purposes.
