I have three GFCIs in my hose right now.  Two of them (one
a seldom used bathroom now that my daughter has moved out,
the other an unused outside circuit) don't trip with their
built-in tester or my plug-in tester .  All were purchased
and installed at about the same time.  One of my "honey-dos"
for the weekend.
