An electrical assembly including an electrical connector and a complementary test module configured for diagnostic testing of a circuit board connected to the connector when a test module is positioned within a receiving mouth of the connector. The connector includes a connector housing having opposed first and second sides and end sides defining a module receiving mouth, and a plurality of conductive electrical terminals disposed in the connector housing and having portions extending into the module receiving mouth. The electrical connector advantageously includes one or more recessed contacts located on the second side of the connector within the module receiving mouth. The recessed contacts have a portion extending within the connector housing and are adapted for electrical connection with a protruding contact on the complementary test module and are adapted to remain spaced from a conventional module. The electrical assembly further includes a conductive shroud encircling the electrical connector housing.
