Force deflection and resistance testing system and method of use

A method of testing an electrical interconnect, the steps comprising:

• providing an electrical interconnect testing device;
• providing an electrical interconnect having a plurality of contact points;
• attaching the electrical interconnect to the electrical interconnect testing device;
• providing a device under test having a plurality of contact points;
• placing the device under test in the electrical interconnect after the electrical interconnect has been attached to the electrical interconnect testing device such that the plurality of contact points of the device under test connect with the plurality of contact points of the electrical interconnect;
• providing a actuator configured to press on the device under test in the electrical interconnect;
• moving the actuator in a plurality of increments thereby pressing the device under test into the electrical interconnect;
• wherein the electrical interconnect testing device is capable of taking a resistance measurement on one contact point of the electrical interconnect, or a combination of contact points of the electrical interconnect at the plurality of increments.
