What are the types of hypothesis testing?

There are several types of hypothesis testing, primarily categorized into two main types: parametric and non-parametric tests. Parametric tests, such as t-tests and ANOVA, assume that the data follows a specific distribution (usually normal). Non-parametric tests, like the Mann-Whitney U test or the Kruskal-Wallis test, do not rely on these assumptions and are used when the data doesn't meet the criteria for parametric testing. Additionally, hypothesis tests can be classified as one-tailed or two-tailed, depending on whether the hypothesis specifies a direction of the effect or not.
