Abstract
The LBI (locally best invariant) test is suggested under normality for the constancy of regression coefficients against the alternative hypothesis that one component of the coefficients follows a random walk process. We discuss the limiting null behavior of the test statistic without assuming normality under two situations, where the initial value of the random walk process is known or unknown. The limiting distribution is that of a quadratic functional of Brownian motion and the characteristic function is obtained from the Fredholm determinant associated with a certain integral equation. The limiting distribution is then computed by numerical inversion of the characteristic function.
