Provided herein are methods and systems for rapid testing of films used in the manufacture of bioprocess bags. The methods described herein allow for determination of resistance to flexural fatigue while mimicking actual conditions in bioprocesses such as flexion and subsequent fatigue and failure of a bioprocess bag made of a film when it is placed on a rocking platform.
