At a light in my home, I have a voltage tester with two probs and a multifunction tester borrowed from work

The voltage Indicators shows continuity and beeps between live and neutral

But then multifunction set to continuity shows greater than 1000ohms

What am I doing wrong xD

When you say the VI showed continuity between L and N nit sure what you mean
 
As Tel has suggested, a connected load would cause this.
 
what megger that you are using ?.
