I am on Linux - Ubuntu/ Kubuntu 17.04 and I need to test my website on the latest Safari browser. I found this answer so I downloaded the release from this site. This is what I downloaded webkitgtk-2.16.1.tar.xz

I unzipped it but how can I use/ run it?

I also came across this https://saucelabs.com/ but not sure how reliable it is. Any other open source options?

I installed midori browser which usess the webkit rendering engine. I managed to reproduce the error on a page that was initially found using a safari browser.

As Aurovrata said, Midori is working.

On Debian there's also the browser "Web" which is preinstalled:

It's also a webkit browser and I was able to fix my issue with it, on Ubuntu (and Debian) it is provided by the epiphany-browser package:

sudo apt install epiphany-browser

IMO it is far far far easier to use the online tools then to install hundreds of browsers.

See - https://www.browserstack.com/screenshots or similar tools, you can test hundreds of browsers very very very easily.

If you wish to run safari, IMO, easiest to use wine. See Opera and Safari installation
