Apparatus and methods for inserting and retention testing an electrically conductive contact in an electrical connector. The method includes the following steps: manually partially inserting the contact into a hole formed inside the electrical connector; inserting the contact further into the hole by pushing the contact along an axis using an insertion tip that is aligned with the axis and that displaces in a first direction along the axis during inserting; and after inserting the contact further into the hole, testing retention of the contact inside the electrical connector by pushing the contact along the axis using a test probe that is aligned with the axis and that displaces in a second direction opposite to the first direction during retention testing. The force exerted by the test probe on the contact is less than a specified contact retention force. The method further includes generating an alert signal if the test probe displaces along the axis in the second direction by more than a specified distance during retention testing.
