A method of operating a probing apparatus is disclosed. The method includes providing a chuck configured to support a DUT, a probe card disposed above the DUT and having a probe, and an inspection module configured to determine positions of the DUT and the probe. The method further includes determining a first position of a DUT by an inspection module; moving a probe card to align a first position of a probe with the first position of the DUT; moving a chuck toward the probe; adjusting a temperature of the probe to a predetermined temperature by a temperature-controlling device; determining a second position of the probe by the inspection module after the adjustment of the temperature of the probe; moving the probe card to align the probe with the position of the DUT based on the determination of the second position of the probe; and probing the DUT.
