We study the diffusion of cosmic rays (CRs) in turbulent magnetic fields using test particle simulations. Electromagnetic fields are produced in direct numerical MHD simulations of turbulence and used as an input for particle tracing, particle feedback on turbulence being ignored. Statistical transport coefficients from the test particle runs are compared with earlier analytical predictions. We find qualitative correspondence between them in various aspects of CR diffusion. In the incompressible case that we consider in this paper, the dominant scattering mechanism is the non-resonant mirror interactions with the slow-mode perturbations. Perpendicular transport roughly agrees with being produced by magnetic field wandering.
