Rent one from autozone and do it yourself. Its actually pretty easy. May i ask why you are thinking about a compression test in the first place.

all u do is buy one or rent one, and pull a plug out one at a time, and plug that tester in there and bump the engine as many times as the instructions tell u to, its really easy like said above
