Included are the source kicad files, as well as a set of gerbers. minimum hole diameter on the microvias on the usb-c port is 0.25mm

The switch connects to TP1 and TP2, it is of the SPST(single pole, single throw) variety from ali-express, but any SPST switch should do the job. Links to some examples that can work are included below:

Questions

How big is the Usb test board PCB?

It measures 37.7 × 22.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Usb test board use?

10 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Usb test board KiCad files?

From the CapnRon/usb-analyzer-switch repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is usb test board.kicad_pcb and its schematic usb test board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Usb test board design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
