Normal tests do not always accurately reflect the true clinical state of patients. There are several reasons for this. Normal tests do not always differentiate between healthy and unhealthy patients, they may not accurately reflect the true functional level of patients, they may not be sensitive enough to detect changes over time, and they may not be specific to certain diseases.

1. Normality tests assume that the underlying data follows a normal distribution; however, in some cases the data may follow a different distribution that is not normal. 2. Normality tests assume that the data points are independent, however, in some cases dependent data points may exist which could result in misleading results. 3. Normality tests assume that the data points are randomly sampled, however, in some cases non-random sampling could occur which could also lead to misleading results. 4. Normality tests are generally considered to be “goodness of fit” tests and do not really provide any indication of a true underlying distribution which could lead to confusion.
