A note on testing for exponentiality

Carl M. Harris

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1976, vol. 23, issue 1, 169-175

Abstract: In this note some extensions are made to previous work by a number of authors on the development of tests for exponentiality. The most recent example is due to Fercho and Ringer in which they compare the small sample powers of a few well‐known test statistics for the hypothesis of a constant failure rate. It is the primary intent of this current work to extend Gnedenko's F test to situations with hypercensoring and to provide guidance for its use, particularly when a log‐normal distribution is the alternative.
