If you cannot test it, then hypothesis is probably the wrong word for it.
If I was the scientist you would test is as soon as possible then just skip the hypothesis step
You would test your hypothesis by predicting what the results of your experiment will be so it's like a type of prediction. Another way is what do you think the outcome will be.
In the scientific world that could be a theory, hypothesis, qualitative observation, prediction, or an inference. You can choose one.
Whether or not you write down an hypothesis, if you conduct an experiment, you naturally have a hypothesis since you are trying to find the answer to something and have some sort of expectations.

It depends entirely on what the hypothesis is.
Depends. If you can somehow experiment on it, then Yes, it's possible. But the Scientific Method cannnot test "beliefs" of any sort. It can test hypotheses. So if your hypothesis is, for example, "There is extrasensory perception," you could develop a scientifically valid test of the hypothesis. You would have to identify and control for variables and your experiment would have to be capable of duplication by other researchers. The results would have to be unambiguous, that is, not explainable by any alternate hypothesis. Hope we helped!
test your hypothesis.
That would depend on your hypothesis!

A test statistic is a value calculated from a set of observations. A critical value depends on a null hypothesis about the distribution of the variable and the degree of certainty required from the test. Given a null hypothesis it may be possible to calculate the distribution of the test statistic. Then, given an alternative hypothesis, it is may be possible to calculate the probability of the test statistic taking the observed (or more extreme) value under the null hypothesis and the alternative. Finally, you need the degree of certainty required from the test and this will determine the value such that if the test statistic is more extreme than the critical value, it is unlikely that the observations are consistent with the hypothesis so it must be rejected in favour of the alternative hypothesis. It may not always be possible to calculate the distribution function for the variable.

A hypothesis is a conclusion. To form a hypothesis one would test theories in order to come up with an accurate conclusion.
The lab would be used to test your hypothesis to whether or not you were correct. You would first want to form a hypothesis and then gather data to support or discredit your hypothesis. The hypothesis could be testing anything essentially.
