No Spark after compression test

I just ran a compression test w/o disconnecting the distributor control wires. Now I have no spark. Ignition control module? Iginition coil? Help

What did you do to make the motor not start when you did the compression test? I bet you blew a fuse. does the fuel pump prime?

Already found problem. I had not provided a path for the spark. It found its own and fired the secondary windings of the coil. $55 all fixed!
