Virtualization is the easiest way to create a testing environment. In this case, these instructions reflect the usage of the free VirtualBox tool. VirtualBox can be downloaded from https://www.virtualbox.org/. If you are using a computer maintained by your organization’s IT, you must make an installation request to the IT. It is recommended to install a VirtualBox extension. The VirtualBox extension pack provides support for, but is not limited to, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 devices, and display scaling to suit your system configuration.

Tip

If you click the Kybereo virtual machine window with your mouse, the mouse pointer disappears because the virtual machine has captured the mouse pointer. Right CTRL releases locked window and the mouse capture, and the mouse will work again.
