Lots of excellent advice. I would add that plots also have the advantage of
suggesting a possible solution to any serious violation. For example variance
about the regression line increasing with X tends would lead me first to look
at transformations such as the log or square root. Failure on a homogeneity
test is typically lacking in diagnostic information.
