Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for integrated circuit packages and for enabling electrostatic discharge (ESD) testing of the same. A package includes an integrated circuit chip, a substrate, a first electrically conductive trace, and a second electrically conductive trace. The substrate includes a first electrically conductive region and a second electrically conductive region. The first region is coupled to a first ground signal of the chip, and the second region is coupled to a second ground signal of the chip. The first trace is coupled to the first region and the second trace is coupled to the second region. A portion of the first trace is proximate to a portion of the second trace. An electrically conductive material may be deposited to electrically couple the first and second traces to enable ESD protection testing of the package.
