It's not, as long as you run it on genuine Apple hardware. We use a bunch of macOS VMs that are 100% legal.
The problem with macOS VMs is that there are a lot of compatibility issues, and in my experience it's a lot of effort to set up macOS VMs. If you have the space and the money, real machines are a lot easier to deal with.
true. And that is a very sad state of affairs. I use the travis osx hosts for that, but it's not ideal. There's no interface, but at least you can check that the code compiles, runs, and passes automated tests. That's already huge!
For linux and windows hosts, it seems to me that it is a solved problem, as pointed elsewhere.
