We present predictions of random cascading models for multiparticle production at high energy. Standard and correlated factorial moments in rapidity are shown to provide stringent tests of the intermittency patterns characteristic of random cascades. Using the central limit theorem we show how to test directly for the existence of a cascading process. Finally, we discuss how to take into account statistical corrections.
