I just had mine done yesterday and all I know it's testing for is a bunch of PG stuff and STD's.

im not sure of everything they test for either... but one thing they test for (and i only know b/c i came back positive) is a trait carrier for cystic fibrosis
i know they test for a bunch of other trait carriers of different diseases too

Some STD's, a bunch of genetic carrier tests to see if you are a carrier of different genetic disorders, a complete blood count, etc
Immunity to parvo virus, etc.
