I will be adding a tee and run into my gas lines.
I was planning on a pressure test and soap test.

I have a gauge that I used for co2 I guess this will also work? It
is from 0-60psi

That will work fine. Where I am , they want the test at 15 psi. It should hold
that. Be careful to turn off gas to any appliances first. They cannot handle
that pressure.
You could even loosen a union between each appliance and its valve if there is
any chance the valve could leak.

You should be using a gage that reads to around 5 psi and is readable
in units of 1/10 psi.

Here's one description of the procedure

Check your local codes to be sure of the correct requirements for your
area.

Note--gas valves are intended for low pressures--if you run the
pressure up too high they may leak even though there's nothing wrong
with them.

My gas inspector required a 15 psi test.
