The test I used was a Nickel allergy test I bought online.

If you can recommend a better test kit, please fwd me the link.

I used some vinegar on the rock for a few minutes and then tested the
vinegar. It turned the swab bright red. I will compare results with a
real meteorite and see how that turns out.
