TLDR

Most statistical software packages (such as SPSS and Stata) provide a number of post hoc tests, however, Python ecosystem still lacks implementation of these tests for factorial and block design data.

Abstract

Most statistical software packages (such as SPSS and Stata) provide a number of post hoc tests. However, Python ecosystem still lacks implementation of these tests for factorial and block design data. Currently, Student, Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney tests which are not adapted to multiple pairwise comparisons are offered by SciPy. Statsmodels package includes TukeyHSD test which needs extra actions to be fluently integrated into a data analysis pipeline.
