I have some not-NOS nixies arriving, and they have flying leads instead of pins - what's the best way to test them prior to soldering them into place?

I've heard of using a plasma ball to ionise the gas to see if it's still sealed, but is there a gadget I can buy that clips onto the leads?

I'd like to check the digits all display before permanently soldering them into place
