When model simplification is used in glm (binomial errors) and anova is used two
compare two competitive models one can use either an "F" or a "Chi" test.

R always performs an F test (Although when test="Chi" the test is labeled as
Chi, there isn't any difference between F and Chi test)

Let us assume model1 and model2, where model2 a simplified version of model1

model1_glm(y~factor1*factor2,binomial)
model2_update(model1,~.-factor2)
anova(model1,model2,test="F")# will give the same result as 
anova(model1,model2,test="Chi")
