The developers evaluating the software on OS X El Capitan are being asked to focus on Safari App Extensions development and Spotlight suggestions, appleinsider reported.

The Safari 10 was introduced by Apple Inc. at the Worldwide Developers Conference held earlier this month. The main highlights are the Apple Pay web transactions and the picture in picture video viewing. These feature, however, are exclusive to macOS Sierra and will not be available on the Safari 10 developer beta released for Yosemite and El Capitan.

The newly released betas are only limited to developers as of now. However, Apple said that this software will be available to public beta testers this July as part of macOS Sierra. The browser will reportedly be released this Fall 2016.
