In this article, statistical inference and prediction analyses for the Weibull process with incomplete observations via classical approach are studied. Specifically, observations in the early developmental phase of a testing program cannot be observed. We derive the closed-form expressions for the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters in both the failure- and time-truncated Weibull processes. Confidence interval and hypothesis testing for the parameters of interest are considered. In addition, predictive inferences on future failures and the goodness-of-fit test of the model are developed. Two real examples from an engine system development study and a Boeing air-conditioning system development study are presented to illustrate the proposed methodologies.
