Bridging testing method between adjacent semiconductor devices includes forming patterned diffusion region on semiconductor substrate, and forming first conductive layer over diffusion region. First conductive layer is patterned in same pattern as patterned diffusion region. Second conductive layer formed extending in first direction over first conductive layer. Second conductive layer is patterned to form opening extending in first direction in central region of second conductive layer exposing portion of first conductive layer. First conductive layer exposed portion is removed exposing portion of diffusion region. Source/drain region is formed over exposed portion of diffusion region, and dielectric layer is formed over source/drain region. Third conductive layer is formed over dielectric layer. End portions along first direction of second conductive layer removed to expose first and second end portions of first conductive layer. Electrical resistance across first conductive layer between first and second end portions of first conductive layer is measured.
