This paper presents the results of estimating the power of Kolmogorov test and its modifications for testing hypothesis about an exponential distribution against the alternative hypothesis (population has a Weibull distribution). The power of test was calculated based on a distribution of empirical cumulative distribution function and limiting distribution, as well as computer-simulation methods. Some important properties and limitations were given that are related to power simulation study of goodness-of-fit tests.

Keywords: statistical test, Kolmogorov test, power of a test, exponential distribution, simulation
