I’ve never really heard of the power supply heating up the transistor under normal conditions. When you touch the transistor to test it, your fingers will heat up the transistor. If your tester does not account for leakage, it will be dramatically less accurate with temperature changes

I just measure things at a comfortable room temperature since the transistors will primarily be used in similar conditions
