Do you test in Epiphany? That’s what the WebKit project recommends you do.

I test in Epiphany, and have resolved some Safari bugs that way.

Unfortunately that's not enough, for two reasons:

1. Safari is the only browser that is still tied to OS release versions, the WebKit version used by Epiphany is rarely the same, so results will likely differ

2. Epiphany has no mobile emulation mode. (E.g., I had to work around around an annoying input zoom bug in Safari/iOS by blindly applying the least stupid solution I found searching the net)
