A test based on ordered observations for selection of consistent judges for sensory evaluation has been given. The test–statistic depends on the sum of ranks of different products under consideration. The probability distribution of the test‐statistic has been worked out for small sample and it turns out to be chi‐square distribution for large sample. The analytical procedure has been explained by a numerical example of a taste‐testing experiment.
