The shortcoming of a test is the difference between the maximal
attainable power and the power of the test under consideration. Vanishing
shortcoming, when the number of observations tends to infinity, is therefore an
optimality property of a test. Other familiar optimality criteria are based on
the asymptotic relative efficiency of the test. The relations between these
optimality criteria are investigated. It turns out that vanishing shortcoming
is seemingly slightly stronger than first-order efficiency, but in regular
cases there is equivalence. The results are in particular applied to tests for
goodness-of-it.
