Does anyone know if this cap tester can also test ceramic capacitors,
in addition of course to electrolytics ? Thanks

The answer is YES to both questions.

It can test for value - the ESR test would be useless.

I had the pleasure of using an LC-102 (they're at at least 103 now)
for much of the time I worked in electronics repair. Its only drawback
was lack of portability for testing; the suspected capacitor had to be
removed from the chassis for this test, and others. For many repairs,
where a simple verification and subsequent replacement is a slam-dunk,
this is not an issue. I give this tester high marks, 5 starts.

It isn't a one-trick pony either...
