Remarks

Use the KruskalWallisTest class to test whether a number of samples come from the same population. This test can be thought of as a non-parametric variation of one-way analysis of variance that doesn't assume the data is normally distributed.

This class approximates the distribution of the test statistic by a beta distribution. This approximation has been found to be more accurate than the traditional chi-square approximation. Still, for small sample sizes, critical values and tail probabilities may differ significantly from their exact values.
