I can direct you to a couple of videos on line where there is evidence to the contrary. -
Well, twisting it to see if it has teh rigth tension is perfectly acceptable. You're not going to harm it by twisting it as far as you can. If it is too loose you will be able to twist it more, and the tension will end up the same as if you can only twist it the rigth amount or if it is already too tight and you can barely twist it at all.

This is the clearest explanation out of those: Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension. Basically you turn the engine with the tensioner bolt loose, then use the allen key to hold it while you torque it up. And yes after that a good guide is being able to twist it 90o in one of the long free lengths of the belt -
good choice....I have a set of those and use them all the time including on this job. Plus, no-one wants a damaged nipple
