We consider testing the hypothesis of normality for 2, 3, 4 samples in absence of a priori information about its distribution parameters and alternative hypotheses. We base a precise test on a ratio of a range to a minimal spacing. We compare the test with Shapiro Wilk test.
Keywords: normality test, small sample size, Shapiro & Wilk test, spherical tetrahedron.
