Abstract

In this article, based on an extension of Kullback-Leibler information via survival function, two test statistics for Weibull distribution have been introduced. In the following, the critical values of the test statistics have been calculated for different sample sizes, and also in the comparison of the powers of these tests with different other tests and various alternative distributions, it was observed that the performance of the proposed tests is better almost everywhere. Finally, we apply the tests for a real data set.
