Safari Technology Preview Together with the public betas, it is the only way for Apple users to test the company's future software without having to be an official Apple developer. An open door that those from Cupertino leave you to “play” at being a developer.
Well, the said test browser has received a new update. You can now download Safari Technology Preview on your version 151 on your Mac and see what the next macOS Ventura Safari will look like.

New version 151 of the Safari Technology Preview includes bug fixes and performance improvements for Web Inspector, WebDriver, CSS, Rendering, Media, JavaScript, Web API, Web Components, Accessibility, Blocking Mode, and Web Extensions, among other miscellaneous fixes.
This version of Safari Technology Preview is based on the Safari 16 update and includes support for features that come in macOS is coming, like Live Text, passkeys, web extension enhancements, and other new features we'll see in upcoming software for Macs.

Apple's goal with the Safari Technology Preview is to collect feedback from developers and users about its browser development process. Safari Technology Preview can seamlessly run side-by-side with the existing Safari browser and, while designed for developers, does not require a developer account to download it and use it as another application.
