Testing Composite Null Hypothesis Based on $S$-Divergences

We present a robust test for composite null hypothesis based on the general $S$-divergence family. This requires a non-trivial extension of the results of Ghosh et al.~(2015). We derive the asymptotic and theoretical robustness properties of the resulting test along with the properties of the minimum $S$-divergence estimators under parameter restrictions imposed by the null hypothesis. An illustration in the context of the normal model is also presented.
