The present study proposes two normality tests using nonparametric rank measures for small sample such as modified normal probability paper(NPP) tests and modified Ryan-Joiner Test. This research also reviews various normality tests such as $X^2$ test, and Kullback-Leibler test. The proposed normality tests can be efficiently applied to the sparsity tests of factor effect or contrast using saturated design in $k^n$ factorial and fractional factorial design.
