I would go for the Pro. So you have some more options then the Home
version.
Also depends on the what your customers mostly have.

Hi
I am just setting up Virtual Box now on my iMac. I need to purchase of copy of
Windows 10. I am just wondering whether people would recommend Windows 10 Home
or Pro. Any real difference when it comes to developing or testing? Is it
best again to stick to the lowest common denominator principle and go with
Windows 10 Home?
Thanks.
Regards,
Martin Koob

All that said, I've enjoyed the convenience of VMs for decades, and a few years
ago Mark Wieder suggested I try VirtualBox - never used anything else since.
It's free and open source, and when I last used Parallels I found VirtualBox
was able to restore sessions in a fraction of the time.
With a VM you can share the Clipboard across OSes, as well as folders,
hardware, and more. Being able to copy code from my dev OS into the test OS
has been a godsend of a convenience more times than I can count.
Running a second OS within your main OS will eat some RAM; Min. 8 GB, 16 GB
feels luxurious.
Whether virtual or physical, the OS choice is no choice: Windows 10 is the
present and future of Windows. What I personally prefer doesn't matter for
testing. I need what my customers use, and while it can be useful to spin up
VMs with older Windows versions, Win10 is where the action is today, and
tomorrow.
