No, but it was a valid test, even if the temperature was "uncalibrated."

This is for capacitor testing of small boxed film parts. The reason we
aren't using solder is because we are measuring specs with our LCR
bridge up to 100KHz which needs the parts in a special fixture.

A bread board is nice for a number of reasons, one of them being
pre-made. I may have to go with a PCB and either socket pins or IC
sockets spaced appropriately.
