Recently bump-type alternatives to uniformity have generated interest among practitioners, especially in physics and reliability, and hence statistical tests for uniformity versus bump-type alternatives are currently of strong interest. In this paper we report the power of a new entropy-based test of uniformity under a bump alternative. The results are contrasted to previous statements of Cressie based on a statistic involving logarithms of high-order spacings.
