Abstract
The exponential distribution is widely used in reliability and life testing analysis. In this paper, two tests of fit for
the exponential distribution based on Informational Energy and entropy are constructed. Consistency and other properties
of the tests are proved. Using a simulation study, critical values of the proposed tests are obtained and then power values of
tests are computed and compared with each other against various alternatives. Finally, we apply the tests for time between
failures of secondary reactor pumps and waiting times for fatal plane accidents in the USA from 1983 to 1998.
