Using the rejection sampling for finding tests

A new method based on the rejection sampling for finding statistical tests is proposed. This method is conceptually intuitive, easy to implement, and applicable for arbitrary dimension. To illustrate its potential applicability, three distinct empirical examples are presented: (1) examine the differences between group means of correlated (repeated) or independent samples, (2) examine if a mean vector equals to a specific fixed vector, and (3) investigate if samples come from a specific population distribution. The simulation examples indicate that the new test has similar statistical power as uniformly the most powerful (unbiased) tests. Moreover, these examples demonstrate that the new test is a powerful goodness-of-fit test.
