Visual Studio Professional Subscription - Hyper-V core licensing

Hi

I have a Visual Studio Professional subscription which allows me to download and use Windows Server 2016/2019 Standard or DataCentre edition. I would like to test Hyper-V on my homelab server which is equipped with 2 CPU's which have 8 cores each.  For testing purpose do I need to purchase a 16 core license if I was to use the DataCentre edition or the core license is not required when testing / using a Visual Studio Professional subscription ?

Kind regards,

Aekash
