| Abstract: | Let F(x) be a life distribution. An exact test is given for testing H0 F is exponential, versusH1Fε NBUE (NWUE); along with a table of critical values for n=5(l)80, and n=80(5)65. An asymptotic test is made available for large values of n, where the standardized normal table can be used for testing. |
