A recent trend among developers, including Dennys Kuhnert and Alex Coulombe, involves utilizing both the Vision Pro and Quest 3 headsets in a unique way to streamline testing processes. Kuhnert has found a clever method by wearing the Vision Pro as his under-layer and holding the Quest 3 up as his outer-layer to quickly test passthrough functionality on both devices. This method allows Kuhnert to avoid constantly switching headsets when testing software on the Quest 3, showcasing the efficiency and convenience of this approach.

Other developers have also experimented with using two headsets simultaneously to enhance their testing capabilities. While wearing both headsets at the same time may not be practical for in-depth usability testing due to sensor placements, this method proves to be effective for quick glances inside VR from the view within another headset.

In a humorous video walkthrough, Alex Coulombe demonstrated how he played Beat Saber by holding the headsets in just the right position on his face. This innovative approach has sparked interest within the developer community as they explore creative ways to leverage the capabilities of different VR headsets for testing purposes.

These developments highlight the ingenuity and experimentation within the VR developer community as they continue to push the boundaries of testing methodologies.
