I haven't heard of Makesens. But this test can be easily implemented in Python, if you're familiar with this language.

Faiz M.A

Yes, It is suitable.

Matthew Riley

I agree with Faiz, it is suitable and has been used extensively in the past. I have used it for assessing annual trends in air pollutants and climate variables. There are easy to use approaches in R and python. However, the MAKESENS excel workbook is very straightforward and robust (so long as your time series is less than 100 intervals).
