Three methods of approximating the power of Wilcoxon's rank-sum test against shift alternatives are studied. They are obtained by using a Gaussian assumption, Edgeworth expansion, or bootstrap. It is assumed that a historical data set is available to use in estimating the shape of the distribution.

## Abstract For some applications of the WILCOXON‐MANN‐WHITNEY‐statistic its variance has to be estimated. So e.g. for the test of POTTHOFF (1963) to detect differences in medians of two symmetric distributions as well as for the computation of approximate, confidence bounds for the probability __P
