Explanation

A sandbox is a tightly isolated virtual environment used to run untrusted or experimental software without risk to the host system or network. It restricts what the contained application can access or modify. A hypervisor is the software layer (e.g., VMware, Hyper-V) that creates and manages virtual machines-it is not itself a VM. A container (e.g., Docker) shares the host OS kernel and is less isolated than a full VM. VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) is a system for delivering virtualized desktops to end users, not an isolated testing environment.
