Pneumatic test is not advisable for safety and integrity of piping components. Hence Hydro test is the default choice.
Hope it clarifies your doubt.
Thanks.

Noted for your valuable point. But the contractor is asking to show the code requirements.
B31.1 has followed for design and fabrication of the Piping.

Usually pressure piping have to be hydro tested (by default) as like pressure vessel. No exceptions to rules?
A citation from the appropriate code or mentioning the appropriate code would be appreciated.
Thanks.
