A system and method for testing semiconductor components are provided. The system includes: a test board, sockets mounted to the test board in electrical communication with test circuitry, and carriers mounted to the sockets for housing the components. The carriers include bases, and interconnects mounted thereon, having contact members configured to make temporary electrical connections with contacts on the components. In addition, the contact members on the interconnects can be shaped to perform an alignment function, and to prevent excessive deformation of the contacts on the components. The sockets include camming members and electrical connectors configured to electrically contact the carriers with a zero insertion force. During a test procedure, the bases and interconnects can remain mounted to the sockets on the test board, as the components are aligned and placed in electrical contact with the interconnects. However, different bases and interconnects can be mounted to the sockets for testing different types of components.
