An improved test probe assembly has an improved mounting assembly which provides the test probe multi-directional freedom of movement with respect to a base in order to resist damage frequently caused to the test probe. The improved mounting assembly may, for example, include at least a first resilient mount disposed on the base and having at least a first support and at least a first resilient element. The at least a first resilient element, which may, for example, be at least a first spring, is deflectable when the test probe engages a structure, such as a device under testing (DUT). Accordingly, the improved test probe assembly of the invention can be deflected an infinite number of positions, in order to resist damage caused, for example, by misalignment between the probe and the DUT.
