Well probably https://www.virtualbox.org/ will do. Normally not to test audio latency but surely to test the rest.

You can host a win7 virtual machine (don`t set up an xp, is pretty old). I'm on Win8.1 and use 3 VM, Ubuntu, OSX and Win10.

Hope it helps.

Capturing build problems is also one of my motivations, but getting
distributable artifacts is another one.

I would like to add real unit tests to the setup, but currently my
python scripts for starting pd are not working consistently, and to be
honest, I have no idea how to test the Windows builds on a Linux machine.

Thanks,
Thomas
