The idea here is to batch-test so that I don't have to get out the clip leads and other pieces every time I want to use one of these parts from the junk box.  After a few times of jury-rigging a test set, I'll have used up the time needed to build a jig.

Jim,

I see your point, of course. Since all my test equipment, leads, fixtures, etc., are always set up and ready to go, for me it's easier to test on the fly. 

I've been thinking about a tester for regulators all day, using an Arduino or other MCU of course. I might just mess with that idea tonight for a little change from a frustrating troubleshooting project.
