How do you test SMD bluetooth modules without soldering them to a PCB?

I am making PCB prototype with components and a WT51822-S2 bluetooth module, which can be soldered on easily but desoldered hardly. Is there a way to test SMD modules without actually soldering them on the pcb?

You can get special spring clips for castellated pads, too.

If you would like to know how many insertions/removals they’d be good for in a production test environment, you can ask your mass production supplier for help. They’re really meant as an engineering tool for evaluation

What type of PCB material should I use?

I’m making my first 4 layer PCB (1 signal, 2 GND plane, 3 PWR plane, 4 signal) with impedance control. How do you know what type of material to use? Is FR4 material ok for the 50 Ω and 90 Ω impedance?
