Apple doesn’t seem to offer downloads of older versions of Safari, and I’m not even sure they would install on Mac OS X, as Safari seems to be part of the OS like Internet Explorer is on Windows.
Is there any way to test my website on old versions of Safari? I need to fully test (i.e. click around, try out JavaScript), so a screenshot service wouldn’t cut it.
Simply enter the address of a website that you want to open and press the "Test now!" button. Test now! The free Browserling version offers 3 minutes of Safari testing on Windows 7 but to get unlimited minutes and access to all other operating systems, you'll have to get the developer plan.
This is how to open a different version: Open Simulator. File → Open Simulator → Select Version → Select Device.
For the most part, no, the versions are not tied to OSX releases.
Michel Fortin’s Multi-Safari looks like a good bet. 3.0.4 worked great for me on Snow Leopard.
(Bonus question: did Michel Fortin work on Markdown?)
Browserstack seems to be the fastest way to test versions 4/5 of Safari at this point without spinning up a VM.
