Tester 4.0 - Qemu Boot

By providing a streamlined interface—often graphical (GUI)—these tools remove the complexity of QEMU’s command-line and allow users to quickly test boot functionality. This is invaluable for preventing wasted time and resources. Instead of burning an ISO to a disc or writing it to a USB drive only to find it's faulty, developers and hobbyists can "pre-flight" their bootable media in a safe, isolated virtual environment.

One of the most requested features is now included. You can instruct the boot tester to simulate hardware failures:
