A test access point structure for accessing test points of a printed circuit board and method of fabrication thereof is presented. Each test access point structure is conductively connected to a trace at a test access point and above an exposed surface of the printed circuit board to be accessible for probing by a fixture probe. The test access point structure may be designed and manufactured to permit deformation of the test access point structure upon initial probing of the test access point structure with a fixture probe to ensure electrical contact between the fixture probe and the test access point structure.
