  • In statistics, Barnard's test is an exact test used in the analysis of contingency tables. It examines the association of two categorical variables and is a more powerful alternative than Fisher's exact test for 2×2 contingency tables. While first published in 1945 by George Alfred Barnard,the test did not gain popularity due to the computational difficulty of calculating the p-value. Nowadays, for small/moderate sample sizes (n<1000), computers can often implement Barnard's test in a few seconds.
