We consider testing for trend in recurrent event data. More precisely, for such data we consider testing of the null hypothesis of data coming from a renewal process. The new tests are essentially obtained by considering appropriate integrated versions of classical trend tests. Moreover, adaptive versions of earlier considered tests versus non-monotonic alternatives, like bathtub trend, are suggested. A simulation study shows that the new tests have favorable properties and sometimes outperform classical tests. Examples with real data are also considered.
