There is no simple way to test FETs with either analog or digital multimeters.
Bipolar transistors can be tested to see if their junctions are OK but they can also have failures that cannot be detected with a multimeter.

the best way is to compeair the data sheet of that transistor to the readings of that transistor. . . . .and u can get the readings of that transistor by using a fungction genrator and a c.r.o
show how to test igbt and mosfet in an easy way
Much lower. Check out electronics sites to get the formulae for each.
Check this place. Others do exist offering such a component. www.cmbcomp.com/p/l35.htm Good luck.
If you know the base of the transistor, and you have an ohmmeter that puts out more than about 0.7 volts, you can check base to emitter or base to collector as if it were a diode, and it will conduct when the more positive lead of the ohmmeter is connected to the P junction. That will tell you if the transistor is NPN or PNP. If you don't know the base, you can check all six directions. Only two should conduct, the two that are forward biased towards the base.
