Stochastic procedures are randomized statistical procedures which are functions of the observed sample and of one or more artificially constructed auxiliary samples. As the size of the auxiliary samples increases, a stochastic procedure becomes nearly nonrandomized. The stochastic test of this paper arises as a numerically feasible approximation to a natural minimum distance goodness-of-fit test for multivariate parametric models. The distance being minimized here is the half-space metric for probabilities on a Euclidean space. It is shown that the various approximations used in constructing the stochastic test and its critical values do not detract from its first-order asymptotic performance.
