During development testing, BFC utilized multiple tests on multiple configurations and looked for issues with Anti Virus products or configuration differences.

Each test run started with a clean OS (meaning no installed software except what is indicated on the chart) and then installed any browsers required for the test. Next, hardware was installed and configured before starting the install (or not) of the Postalmate™ application.

The grid is label with the computer utilized for the test (ex: HP would designate a Hewlett Packard computer, HV would be a HyperV machine, VB is a Virtual Box environment).

During 2019 testing, one instance of the Kasperky AntiVirus cased a problem with the Microsoft Edge browser. Upon retest, the issue did not present itself again.
