Notes
... Ideally we would like a test with α = β = 0. Like most of life this ideal is impossible. For a fixed sample size increasing α will in general decrease β and vice versa. So the general prescription in designing hypothesis tests is to fix α of a small number and design a test that will give as small a ...
