Toro Rosso's Sebastian Vettel is moving to the main Red Bull team.
Takuma Sato will test for the Ferrari-powered outfit at Jerez on 18 September, the day after Swiss driver Sebastien Buemi, 19.
Buemi , who is currently racing in the GP2 feeder series is Red Bull Racing's test and reserve driver.
Gerhard Berger, co-owner along with the Red Bull energy drink billionaire Dietrich Mateschitz, said last week that he would ideally pair a young driver with an experienced one.
The Austrian has also warned Frenchman Bourdais, the four times Champ Car champion who made his F1 debut this year, that he still had to prove his worth.
Sato has been out of F1 since his Super Aguri team folded in May.
Toro Rosso have also been linked to Brazilian Bruno Senna, whose late uncle Ayrton was a triple world champion and team-mate of Berger at McLaren.
