I would recommend at the very least that you test on a PPC and an Intel machine, for each os version you plan on supporting. Additionally, our QA has a couple of towers, an iBook, a MacBook, and a couple of iMacs. I think QA partitions each drive for a specific OS (10.4.n, 10.5.m, where n and m are the very latest releases -- we simply do not have the time or resources to test intermediate releases), and every once in a while we clean install from DVD. It's not as "sterile" a setup as some places I've worked at, where re- imaging of drives was a daily chore, but it hasn't bitten us.

I was wondering what the common ways are to test my application on OSX 10.* versions. Besides having a separate machine each having a different version, is there any other way you guys are using to test your apps? Coming from
windows development, there you can test your apps using VMware on a
different flavor of windows.
