For daily minor things like age verification I just show my EU-issued ID card.
This depends on a type of a test. When registering for a test at "community sites" at one of the major pharmacy chains, nothing is required other than a name and a DOB (currently registered for just such a test)

Perhaps order one of the supervised at home tests and have it delivered to your hotel, etc. Or see reply immediately above.
This thread is mainly about traveling to the US, not other destination countries.
My point is that the current testing is operating essentially at (or slightly above) capacity. Adding a substantial amount of newly required testing will overload it (and there is no "spare", evidently, otherwise they would have added it long time ago to improve test availability).
