A test method for a semiconductor device that is provided with an ECC circuit that uses product code that is composed of a first code and a second code for implementing error correction of a memory, the test method includes steps of: obtaining first pass/fail determination results and second pass/fail determination results that are realized by independent correction operations based on the first code and the second code, respectively; recording the results in a first fail memory and a second fail memory, respectively; executing a prescribed logical operation such as an AND operation relating to the contents of the first fail memory and the contents of the second fail memory; and based on the results of the logical operation, remedying both fail bits and potential fail bits.
