A method of testing a non-volatile memory device and a method of managing the non-volatile memory device are provided. The method of testing the non-volatile memory device includes calculating first and second values based on program loop frequencies corresponding to word lines of a memory area. A characteristic value of the memory area may be calculated based on the first and second values, and may be compared to a reference value to determine whether the memory area is defective.
