By requiring a random lifetime to be stochastically comparable to its residual life, or to its equilibrium life, or to the residual life of its equilibrium life, the authors derive some moment inequalities that the underlying random lifetime must satisfy. Using these moment inequalities, the authors develop some nonparametric statistical tests for testing several aging properties of the underlying random lifetime.
