2. For a comprehensive discussion of hypothesis testing, see A. Stuart, K. Ord, S. Arnold, Kendall's Advanced Theory of Statistics, vol. 2A, sixth ed., Arnold, London, 1999, and earlier editions by Kendall and Stuart. From the formal correspondence between hypothesis tests and confidence intervals in Chapter 20, all the frequentist hypothesis tests in this paper can be restated in terms of confidence intervals and limits.
