For testing purpose I'd SSH tunnel into the system and use dynamic port
forwarding to the application listening on localhost.

That way you don't need to bind Docker to a WAN facing interface.

It's a good security measure that avoids exposing the testing instance
until is fully ready and secured.

If security is not a concern in this case, then public IP and a DNS CNAME
record should do the trick!

Sam/Prasoon what do you think?
