Abstract
The paper considers generalized likelihood ratio tests for the equality of the location, parameters and⁄or the failure rates of k independent location and scale parameter exponentials when observations are censored in time. For testing the equality of the failure rates, asymptotic null distributions of the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) criteria are obtained. Also, asymptotic distributions of GLRT criteria are obtained under local alternatives. For testing the equality of the location parameters, asymptotic null distributions of the GLRT criteria are obtained.
