How can I bench-test a starter from a fluorescent light fixture?

Mar 27, 2008 by Rhinorm | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

There's only 2 posts, can't be too complicated.
I learned it (starter) is a switch, that opens mere seconds after turn-on to start the fluorescing.
I still dont know how to test it!

Connect it to a bulb within the rated specs?

Have never heard of a multi-meter test to check a ballast, but, then again, I'm not an electrician either. ;)
