+# Testing rapidly sending packets while the receiving node tries to reply
+
+## Usage
+
+This test is supposed to be used in tandem with [netdev_flood_replier].
+
+**Before** you start the replier first flash this application to another board
+that supports the same link-layer technology as the device under test on the
+replier:
+
+```sh
+make flash
+```
+
+You can test if everything went right by connecting via terminal to the node
+
+```sh
+make term
+```
+
+If after a reset the following message is shown and no error messages follow,
+the device started flooding successfully
+
+```
+Starting to flood now; start an instance of tests/netdev_flood_replier
+(on a device with matching link-layer ;-)) to see results.
+```
+
+## Support for more devices
+Currently the following devices are supported with this test:
+
+- `at86rf2xx`
+
+To extend the coverage of this test, just add the setup and sending behavior for
+your device in the functions it is documented
+
+```C
+/**
+ * @note    Please amend for more device support
+ */
+```

+# Testing rapidly received packets while sending replies
+
+## Usage
+
+This test is supposed to be used in tandem with [netdev_flood_flooder].
+
+It is supposed to test a bug in network devices where an incoming packet is
+overwitten by a sent packet before it is read by the upper layer.
+
+Start the flooder first (see README there) and then flash this application and
+run the test
+
+```sh
+make flash
+make test
+```
+
+If there is no output for a while, the test was successful.
+
+## Support for more devices
+Currently the following devices are supported with this test:
+
+- `at86rf2xx`
+
+To extend the coverage of this test, just add the setup, sending, and reception
+behavior for your device in the functions it is documented
+
