Devices and methods are provided for testing various types of smart cards including contact, contactless, and hybrid type (contact/contactless) smart cards. A test device includes a logic tester, a contactless interface unit, and a contact interface unit. The logic tester generates a test pattern that is transmitted to a smart card to test the smart card and compares a received response pattern with a response pattern to test a status of the smart card. The contactless interface unit enables a contactless test mode of operation and the contact interface unit enables a contact test mode of operation.
