Abstract :
An exact sequential test is given for two equipments in terms of the ratio of their constant failure rates. The plans are useful for incentives in life testing of these equipments against one another during their constant failure-rate period. The theory and equations for the tables are developed and the related references are included. Three test plans are summarized.
