So I was wondering how to stop gdb every time my variable (test_v) changes
I know
watch test_v
Do I do
watch test_v
stop
To stop the program every time the variable test_v changes?

You don't need to use stop to make the program stop when the variable changes. Just watch test_v is enough.
stop command is not for stopping the program, but only meant to be hooked so you can execute some commands automatically when the program stops. Example usage from the gdb manual:
define hook-stop
handle SIGALRM nopass
end
define hook-run
handle SIGALRM pass
end
define hook-continue
handle SIGALRM pass
end
