I agree with you. For many years, several students didn´t understand GC test in my classes because the authomatic option of Eviews. They never worried about the number of lags and had difficult to understand the importance of the normality of residuals. A menu would be great, but it´s better to show the whole output of the regressions...<div>

Would it? I beg to differ. The test is there already, and that&#39;s what counts; why do you need a separate menu entry? The cost of crowding the menus is not zero. Moreover, from a purely pedagogical point of view I&#39;d rather teach my students &quot;despite the fancy name a GC test is just an F test; here it is&quot; that &quot;you find the GC test under such and such submenu&quot;, as I prefer comprehension to mindless memorisation, but maybe that&#39;s just me.<br>
