Abstract
Professor Witting’s paper brings out the structure of a generalized rank test and the analogous features of a generalized permutation test (test of structure S), in particular of tests of these types that are optimal against specified alternatives. I want to make a few remarks on the relative merits of these two kinds of tests, a topic which Professor Witting deliberately did not elaborate on.
