You need to realize that the need for RC snubbers in a hard-switching bridge circuit like that is often mainly to compensate for layout problems. Thus, the style of snubber used, and the value of components needed, are highly dependent on the layout. (Snubbers may also be needed to compensate for the nonidealities of the semiconductors, but because the layout probably dominates, you can't test that!)
So, normally you'd start by designing a proper layout - then adding snubbers as needed.
Your layout looks like a total catastrophe, sorry. On the other hand, this helps produce clear results on what kind of snubbing helps in this kind of "extreme", totally failed (sorry!) circuit design; but on the other hand, the implications cannot be directly used, since the style and magnitude of issues will be different.
Snubber components themselves need to be as low inductance as possible, making "socketing" or switching between them useless, because the extra inductance invalidates the practicality of the results. Thus, the only way is to lay the snubber components out properly - you'll need to desolder/solder them as you go, but that's not a big deal since you are probably not going to go through tens of different snubbers.
So, in my opinion, you are approaching this in the completely wrong way, exact opposite to what actually makes sense (and how it's normally done, too). While you may think that the layout is only "kind of" important, it's not; it's actually the meat here; all you are trying to measure and study is completely based on your layout!
Even if you accepted the poor power layout (which could make some sense, since you are trying to fix issue caused by it by using the snubbers, after all!), you'd need to do the snubber layouts as well as possible.
I know that learning about a good power layout may look like an overwhelming task, so let me give you a single tip which will lead you in the right direction: DC bus (your battery voltage) - think about it as two parallel plates, like a capacitor. If you insist on 2-layer design, then it'll be two wide (several inches, if you wish!) fills, one on the bottom layer, one on the top, with only the thickness of the board between them. Fill it with DC bus capacitors (using vias to connect to the "other side", there will be small cutouts then), going directly between the two "plates". This might not be the final or optimal design, but draw it, and your mindset will be in the right place, when you force yourself to add the semiconductors between these plates with almost negligible distance and hence, stray inductance.
