No your sound key should have the sound file name you want to play.

{
  aps =
  {
    alert = "message";
    sound = "sound file name.extension";

  };
}

if u want to test notification then u can try this app https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/easy-apns-provider-push-notification/id989622350?mt=12

I am not doing any marking of this app but it is good for testing push notification
