How to test diodes (DUPLICATE, DELETE)

Hey LPF community,

Was looking into how one can test a range of diodes in a simple manner. So say, we have 20 diodes and would like to test them in a quick and simple way at a set current, what's the best way to do so?

Here's what I've been thinking::
Press diode into aixiz module with lens; Wrap up the wires (w/o solder) on the diode to linear driver set at X current; wires from the driver to ends of 2 batteries (how to hold these 2 batteries together?).

But this way, I'll have to depress the module each time to swap out the diode. Or maybe I could just leave them in the modules I guess, but I'll need 20 modules then lol.

What are better ways to do this? Is there a device I can just put my diode in, that will run a set current and test it?
