#' @title Applying 3 adequacy tests to the Random walk model
#'
#' @description Investigating if the Random walk model is an adequate statistical description of an evolutionary
#' time series by applying the following tests (1) autocorrelation (2) runs test, and (3) constant variation.
#'
#' @param y a paleoTS object
#'
#' @param nrep number of iterations in the parametric bootstrap (number of simulated time series); default is 1000.
#'
#' @param conf confidence level for judging whether a model is an adequate statistical description of the data.
#' Number must be between 0 and 1. A higher number means less strict judgment of whether a model is adequate; default
#' is 0.95. Tests are two-tailed, which means a model is judged adequate if the observed test statistic is within the 2.5
#' percent of the extreme values of the calculated test statistics on the simulated data given the default confidence
#' value of 0.95.
#'
#' @param plot logical; if TRUE, the value of the test statistic calculated based on the observed fossil
#' time series is plotted on the distribution of test statistics calculated on the simulated time series;
#' default is TRUE.
#'
#' @param vstep the variance of the step distribution. This parameter is automatically estimated from the data, if not set
#' by the user (usually not recommended).
#'
#' @details A wrapper function for investigating adequacy of the directional trend model
#' applying all three tests at the same time.
#'
#'
#' @return First part of the output summarizes the number of iterations in the parametric bootstrap and the
#' confidence level for judging whether a model is an adequate statistical description of the data. The last
#' part of the output is a data frame with the adequacy tests as columns and the following rows:
#'
#' @return
#'  \item{estimate}{The calculated test statistic on the observed data.}
#'  \item{min.sim}{The smallest test statistic calculated on the simulated data.}
#'  \item{max.sim}{The largest test statistic calculated on the simulated data.}
#'  \item{p-value}{Not a real p-value, but is calculated as the fraction of simulated test statistics
#'  that is larger (or smaller) than the calculated test statistic on the observed data divided by 0.5.
#'  A value of 1 means 50 percent of the test statistics on the simulated data are larger and smaller
#'  than the calculated statistic on the observed data. A value of 0.10 means 90 percent of the test
#'  statistics on the simulated data are larger or smaller than the test statistic on the observed time
#'  series.}
#'  \item{result}{Whether the model PASSED or FAILED the adequacy test. The outcome depends on the
#'  confidence level.}
