I need to develop some apps for both Android (phone) and iPhone. I will be using NativeScript with Vue.

However I do only own an Android phone, so currently I cannot test the app on an iPhone. Is it possible and reasonable at all to do the testing on an iPad?

I do have a Mac so in terms of ability to release the app, as far as I'm concerned it's possible
