The rear caliper mounting bracket sounds to be the culprit here, there is a stud that sticks out of the inside of your swinging arm, your caliper mounting bracket uses this stud to stop the caliper rotating with the wheel when the rear break is applied. So if the tester grabbed the wheel to check the bearings then the mounting bracket could move and cause the clacking sound.
