The answer will depend on the hypothesis that you are testing and the associated model. You could be looking at how many seed from various packets germinate and if the number of seeds in each packet is small, you could expect the numbers to follow a binomial distribution for which exact probabilities can be calculated. If the number of seeds is large then the distribution is more likely to be normal or lognormal. Or, if you are looking at how long it takes the seed to germinate, you may want to use the exponential or the Poisson distribution. If you want to study how germination is affected by soil quality (fertilizer) and watering you may want to use a Greco-Latin design and use a chi-square test. So, you see, you need to put some thought into this.

What is statistical test of hypothesis?

A statistical hypothesis test will usually be performed by inductively comparing results of experiments or observations. The number or amount of comparisons will generally dictate the statistical test to use. The researcher is basically making a statement and assuming that it is either correct (the hypothesis - H1) or assuming that it is incorrect (the null hypothesis - H0) and testing that assumption within a predetermined significance level - the alpha.

What statistical tests can I use on data collected from quota samples?

You can use statistical tests appropriate for categorical data, such as chi-square tests or Fisher's exact test for associations between variables. For continuous data, you can use t-tests or non-parametric tests like Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis test. It's important to consider the limitations of quota sampling in interpreting the results.
