Abstract
A system is provided for leak testing a package having a body with an opening, a gas permeable material reaching over the opening, and an adhesive bond attaching the gas permeable material to the body beside the opening. The system includes a coupling element configured to connect with the package to enable potential leakage air flow paths into the coupling element, including a) from inside the package through the opening and further through the gas permeable material, and b) from an ambient atmosphere into the package and further through the gas permeable material.
