A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array, a read/write circuit, and a control logic. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory blocks. The read/write circuit performs a read/write operation on a selected page of the memory cell array. The address decoder stores bad block marking data on each of the plurality of memory blocks, and outputs the bad block marking data in response to an address signal. The control logic controls the read/write circuit to test whether a defect has occurred in the plurality of memory blocks, and controls the address decoder to store, as the bad block marking data, a test result representing whether the defect has occurred in the plurality of memory blocks.
