The most common test for packet loss is the ping test. This sends a small packet of data from one computer to another, and then measures the time it takes for the response to be received. If the response time is longer than normal, it may indicate that some of the packets are being lost. Other tests that can be used to detect packet loss include traceroute, pathping, and iperf.
