1. A method of fabricating a test socket that supports a probe stretchable in a longitudinal direction, the method comprising:
forming a first coupling block by joining a first base member made of a conductive material and a first insulating member made of an insulating material;
forming a second coupling block by joining a second base member made of the conductive material and a second insulating member made of the insulating material;
forming a first barrel accommodating hole for accommodating a part of the probe and a first support hole for supporting one end portion of the probe in the first coupling block;
forming a second barrel accommodating hole for accommodating the rest of the probe and a second support hole for supporting the other end portion of the probe in the second coupling block;
inserting one end of the probe into the first barrel accommodating hole to be supported on the first support hole, and inserting the other end of the probe into the second barrel accommodating hole to be supported on the second support hole; and
joining the first coupling block and the second coupling block,
wherein the forming the first barrel accommodating hole and the first support hole is conducted in a state in which the first insulating member and the first base member are combined, and
wherein the forming the second barrel accommodating hole and the second support hole is conducted in a state in which the second insulating member and the second base member are combined.
