I typically have a subscription license installed on my development laptop, and then when I want to confirm that a design can be synthesized using the web edition, I use a Virtual Machine (VirtualBox) with the web edition installed (this allows me to test both Windows and Linux versions).

You can start the subscription edition without a license, and it drops into 30 day evaluation mode. I'm not sure what the restrictions are, eg., I don't know if it disables device programming or just the devices not included in the web edition.

Cheers,
