Fastest way to get a clean mac os environment? (virtual machine?)

Hi,

My team at work (software engineers) developed a really cool & useful bash profile for personal use, and other people seem to really like it so we are thinking about going open source with it.

Anyway I want to test it on a clean mac os environment. The easiest way is just an ec2 machine on AWS, but turns out they don't have mac os machines :( I saw other cloud options, but they are quite expensive for a cloud hosting machine.

So I guess I'm left with 2 options: a Virtual Machine and creating a different user. I guess Creating a different user is super easy, but I guess a lot of the stuff I installed are not on the user level, and I want a clean mac os environment.

So before I start installing a virtual machine and wasting my time with trying to install this shit & trying to figure out how to make it work, any different way to get a clean mac os environment?
