A simple sequential non-parametric test for the two-sample problem is proposed. A method of deriving its ASN function for uniform and exponential distribution is given and their adequacy confirmed by simulation. The test is based on the normal approximation to the distribution of U-statistic. We also consider the small sample sensitivity. We restrict ourselves to the Lehmann alternative. The test is found to be performing well even for small sample size.
