This test, proposed by Mann, Scheuer, and Fertig (1973), is described in detail in, for example, Dodson (1994) or Lawless (1982). The null hypothesis for this test is that the population follows the
Weibull distribution with the estimated parameters. Nelson (1982) reports this test to have reasonably good power, and this test can be applied to
Type II censored data. For computational details refer to Dodson (1994) or Lawless (1982); the critical values for the test statistic have been computed based on Monte Carlo studies, and have been tabulated for n (sample sizes) between 3 and 25; for n greater than 25, this test is not computed.
The Mann-Scheuer-Fertig test is used in
Weibull and Reliability/Failure Time Analysis; see also,
Hollander-Proschan Test and
Anderson-Darling Test.
