Abstract Synchrotron radiation light sources have been becoming import scientific tools in various research areas. To build a state-of-the-art synchrotron radiation light source, one need to carefully study the linear and nonlinear dynamics of the charged beam in each of the light source components, such as the linac, transfer line, booster synchrotron and storage ring. There are many mature software tools, including MAD, elegant and Accelerator toolkit (AT), can be used to accomplish these tasks. In order to achieve a high performance light source, up-to-date technologies are adopt to build various subsystems. The integration of these subsystems need to be fully tested before the light source is operated. However, there lacks of a good software to perform this work. The virtual light source (VLS), a software based upon EPICS and AT, is developed at the National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (NSRL) to fulfill this purpose. This paper presents the details of this software. Some critical applications are also illustrated.
