Most common tube testers can't even test for noise. Having a backup set is the best idea if the cost is within scope. But, of course, tube ownership is the gateway to tube rolling, so I would not be surprised if you purchased alternate brand tubes to add a little flavor.

I also think that the longer you own tube gear, the more likely it is that those thoughts will recede into the background as you focus on the positive virtues of tube ownership. Enjoy the voyage.
