    I'm familiar with all the reasons to use an ESD (grounding) strap. I have a couple of them, not used much, but several years old. How can I reliably test that the ESD straps still work?

    • Should a continuity tester be able to do it?
    • A multi-meter?
    • What about ESD strap testers?

    Please don't guess if you don't know.
    Thanks in advance. :confused
