Reliable verification of codesigned app in OSX

After many problems to codesign an Mac OSX app finally I got a working combination (what to sign, where it should be located).

My question is if there's some system command to do the exact same verification the system does on a downloaded app. I've used codesign --display and RB App Checker that passed the verification in some cases but when downloading the app didn't succeed.

You don't say what version of Mac OS X you develop under, or what version of Mac OS X you're downloading and testing on. That's important because there were changes in code signatures and GateKeeper in Mavericks and later.

See Apple's tech note for details, but what I use is:

spctl -a -v path/to/my.app
