VARtests: Bootstrap Tests for Cointegration and Autocorrelation in VARs

Implements wild bootstrap tests for autocorrelation in Vector Autoregressive (VAR) models based on Ahlgren and Catani (2016) <doi:10.1007/s00362-016-0744-0>, a combined Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test for Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (ARCH) in VAR models from Catani and Ahlgren (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.ecosta.2016.10.006>, and bootstrap-based methods for determining the cointegration rank from Cavaliere, Rahbek, and Taylor (2012) <doi:10.3982/ECTA9099> and Cavaliere, Rahbek, and Taylor (2014) <doi:10.1080/07474938.2013.825175>.
