To make legitimate conclusions about the population, two characteristics must be present within the sample: Representative sampling: While this might be feasible for manufacturing processes, it is much more problematic for software processes. Statistical assumptions: The validity of a statistical ...

The Null Hypothesis
... A type II error, also known as an error of the second kind, occurs when the null hypothesis is false, but it is erroneously accepted as true. It is failing to assert what is present, a miss. A type II error may be compared with a so-called false negative (where an actual 'hit' was disregarded by the ...
