Internet Explorer (IE) has a market share of about 5% in the global browser market. Some organizations or websites are designed to only allow IE, while blocking other browsers for security reasons.
IE is the default browser on most of the (older) Windows editions, which means a large portion of Windows users will use this browser.
An Internet Explorer emulator acts as if it is an Internet Explorer browser. It tries to help developers and testers to test their websites on Internet Explorer.
Because this is an emulator, it is not accurate enough to use this for testing.
TestingBot recommends using its IE browsers running on real desktops, no emulator.
IE Emulators only mimic an Internet Explorer browser screen and User-Agent. It runs slower than a real IE browser and is not as accurate.
You cannot accurately test the CSS support of IE with an emulator. If you are using macOS or Linux, your choices are to install a Windows VM or use a cloud service such as TestingBot.
TestingBot provides a grid of real browsers, including IE7 up to IE11, which you can use for automated and manual testing.
Run a manual IE test on Windows 8, 8.1 or 7. Or perform automated tests on IE7 up to IE11.
If your computer is a macOS or Linux device, we recommend using TestingBot's cloud service to access a IE browser instance.
