\title{Compute tests of specification}
\description{
Generic function for testing the specification of estimated models. It computes the J-test from \code{gmm} objects and J-test, LR-test and LM-test from
\code{gel} objects.
}
\usage{
\method{specTest}{gmm}(x, ...)
\method{specTest}{gel}(x, ...)
\method{print}{specTest}(x, digits = 5, ...)
specTest(x, \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{A fitted model object.}
\item{digits}{The number of digits to be printed.}
\item{\dots}{Arguments passed to methods.}
}
\value{
Tests and p-values
}
