Hi Miejot,
Replace the word gate for ball and follow the same sections for testing. That is the common practice for valve manufacturers producing ball valves to API 6A standard.
I have worked for numerous years for a HPHT subsea ball valve specialist and for an EPC delivering valves from alternate vendors and they all word their test documentation this way.
