test of parameter restrictions based on how far the unrestricted estimate lies from the hypothesized value, scaled by its estimated covariance.

In mathematical statistics, Wald test refers to test of parameter restrictions based on how far the unrestricted estimate lies from the hypothesized value, scaled by its estimated covariance. This meaning comes from Wald (1943) in Transactions of the American Mathematical Society.[1]
