How to test app in old 2017 model samsung TV emulator?

Smart TV
1

I am developing smart tv tizen app, targeting TVs since 2017.

but what I have is 2019 real device TV and latest emulator comes from TV-Extensions 6.0.

I need to test how my app works in 2017 model TVs, for that I need the emulator of that year model.

I tried older version i.e version-3.1.2 from Smart TV - Build | Samsung Developers ,

but I don’t know what to do after downloading that binary from that link.

I googled lot and no useful info, if anyone did that before or faced that scenario, could please guide me in right direction?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Check my comment on Reddit please:

TizenStudio manual installation

Use Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) 64-bit, it works in debootstrap and “chroot”

Install an Oracle JDK 1.8 64-bit
Add a jdk/bin folder into a PATH system variable, so it should be possible to run a java command

It is eclipse 4.5.2 Mars2

Install a Chromium

sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 chromium-browser

install packages

Create a file opt/studio/sdk.info

TIZEN_SDK_INSTALLED_PATH=/home/tizendev/opt/studio
TIZEN_SDK_DATA_PATH=/home/tizendev/opt/tizen-studio-data

Create a file opt/studio/.info/repository.info
