K. SARKADI

Mathematical Institute, Hungarian Academy of Sciences Budapest

It is proved that the Shapiro—Francia test of normality is consistent. More generally, the version of it that tests the hypothesis that the distribution belongs to a two-parameter family of distributions with location and scale parameters is consistent.

Key Words: Exponential distribution • Goodness-of-fit tests • Normal distribution • Order statistics • Tests of distributional hypothesis
