Simulating iOS opening an app fresh in the background

I have a crash in an iOS app that I believe it triggered from iOS opening the app in the background. I'd like to be able to test this hypothesis, but am not sure if I can trigger iOS to open a closed app in the background for testing purposes.

I am specifically looking to have iOS open this app fresh - i.e. not when the app is still active and placed in the background, but when the app is fully closed and iOS triggers a re-open.

Is this possible?
