WildBootTests.jl

WildBootTests.jl performs wild bootstrap-based hypothesis tests at extreme speed. It is intended mainly for linear models: ordinary least squares (OLS) and instrumental variables/two-stage least squares (IV/2SLS). For an introduction to the wild bootstrap and the algorithms deployed here, see Roodman et al. (2019). It is a Julia program, but can be accessed from other environments as demonstrated below.

f = @formula(y ~ 1 + x);                            # state OLS model
f = apply_schema(f, schema(f, df));                 # link model to data
resp, predexog = modelcols(f, df);                  # extract response & (exogenous) predictor variables
