Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for microburst testing are disclosed. According to one method, the method includes defining a test that is divided into one or more test cycles, wherein each test cycle includes a plurality of time intervals for providing packets to destination ports of N ports of the network equipment test device via a plurality of ports of a network switch under test, wherein N is an integer. The method further includes initializing a replication count. The method also includes executing an instance of the test using the replication count. The method further includes monitoring packets switched by each port of the network switch under test to determine an indication of buffering capacity of each port of the network switch under test.
