If you want to test it on 50 Hz, you have a real issue.  You can
not easily generate that much; there is no easy way to morph 60
into same.

There ARE test sets that generate 50HZ from 60 (actually, 60->DC->50)
but offhand I do not know where you'd find one.

Find a no-break UPS that can handle both 115/230 in and outputs 230
