Worked example

What this tool does not do / Limits

This tool gives a starting recommendation from three answers only. It does not check your data, handle assumptions such as equal variance in detail, or replace statistical advice for a real study.

Frequently asked questions

What if my data is not normal?

The tool recommends a non-parametric alternative, such as the Mann-Whitney U test for two independent groups, which does not assume normality.

Does this tool run the test on my data?

No. It only selects a test name. You still need to run the test on your data in a statistics tool.
