An ultrasonic testing system includes one or more matrix array ultrasonic probes, a probe positioning assembly, and an analyzer. The assembly is configured to position the probes for ultrasonic communication with a target, such as a wheel, including at least one coupling validation geometry. Each of the probes is configured to emit a validation ultrasonic signal directed towards a coupling validation geometry within the wheel, measure its emitted validation ultrasonic signal after reflection from a respective coupling validation geometry, and at least one of emit an ultrasonic inspection signal and measure an inspection ultrasonic signal reflected from a defect positioned within an inspection area of the wheel. The analyzer is configured to receive the measured validation ultrasonic signal and the measured inspection ultrasonic signal, determine that the measured validation ultrasonic signal matches a reference validation signal, and output a first notification representing validation of the measured inspection ultrasonic signal.
