Answer 1

If you're just testing that the Push Notifications prompt appears correctly, use the simulator. All you need to do is uninstall the app and reinstall, and the prompt will appear again when you try to register for push notifications.

Answer 2

On iOS 9.x, you can get the prompt every time you delete the app and reinstall it. This is true for both AppStore production downloads and adhoc mode. The device token will be unique each time.

@chengsam verified this is true in iOS 10 as well. @WongWray verified this is true in iOS 11 as well.
