Default Temporary closing PVC drains

I'm building a bathroom wall and need to install a new PVC double

do plumbers use to temporarily close off the open pipes for a day or
two? I heard a wet rag will work to slow sewer gases, but I may need
something better yet not permanent. TIA


Also you ought to find a rubber cap that tightens with a hose clamp,
like a Fernco with the end closed off.
