Can TestDock inspect AASA while testing universal links?
TestDock opens universal links through iOS and keeps them attached to the target app profile. It can also inspect the apple-app-site-association response so route behavior and the web association metadata can be reviewed from one place.

Best for
Where this workflow fits.
- Checking whether iOS accepts an HTTPS-link open request
- Reviewing AASA availability and app association metadata
- Repeating route tests with known parameters and open history
Profiles and logs stay on the device, provider credentials use platform secure storage, and exports omit secrets.

What TestDock brings to the job.
Practical workflow
From setup to a reviewed result.
Create an app profile
Record the app name, current-platform identifier, URL schemes, and verified-link settings that define the installed target.
Save reusable tests
Add deep links, share fixtures, push setups, notification templates, and manual scenarios to that app profile.
Exercise the installed app
Open links or share sheets through the operating system, send a validated provider push, and run observable scenario steps on the device.
Keep useful evidence
Review redacted logs and share completed scenario results or a non-secret profile package when another device needs the same setup.
