ESR can be thought of as a resistor in series with a capacitor. Ideally, a capacitor would be purely inductive, with no resistive losses. ESR should be constant, regardless of frequency, INMHO... for what it is worth... impedance will change with frequency, and many inexpensive ESR meters are frequency sensitive in that regard. A shorted capacitor will read perfect on an ESR meter.
