I know some folks use meggers but I never have, used to use a mains rectified neon in a cigar/old cartridge can (what else) and the Avo on ohms for quick checks as the needle as the capacitor charges can tell you quite a bit.
Waxies I would change anyway along with some other well known types if it meant saving say an output or mains transformer, but I would fault find most down to that particular component first otherwise you don't learn 'owt, in most cases it's only a few minutes extra time unless they had obviously popped then it would be instant replace.
