If by that you mean it showed open or infinity all the time then you need to clean your points again they aren't closing.  When they are open you have infinity .no continuity, closed should show a very small ohm rating .  One other thing run a temp ground jumper from a clean spot on the engine block to the battery neg.  There is a small ground cable under your engine on those isolation mount tractors that can fail and the engine is not grounded.  Jumper bypasses that potential issue.

Do yourself a favor and cure one problem at a time, Get the ignition system working properly, get the engine running, and then you can do a functional test on the charging system. Have you done the static timing yet?
