boiling oil lines

[cyxym]

Can anyone help me about boiling oil lines hydrostatic test..
I know that we can't use water for boiling oil lines hydro test. Can be pneumatic test or what is the safest way to practise pressure test to boiling oil lines. (per asme B31.3)

Regards,

Uh, I'd test with oil that's not boiling.
