dc.descriptionThe study of the Gaussianity of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation is a key topic to understand the process of structure formation in the Universe. In this paper, we review a very useful tool to perform this type of analysis, the Rayner & Best smooth tests of goodness of fit. We describe how the method has been adapted for its application to imaging and interferometric observations of the CMB and comment on some recent and future applications of this technique to CMB data.
