Parity and CP violation in W boson decay are discussed. It is shown that CP test is possible by measuring the angular distribution in a W boson non-suppressed two-body decay mode without the polarization measurement of the final state fermions. We found that LEP200 and next linear collider (NLC) have non-trivial sensitivity on the right-handed coupling and CP violation. LEP200 will slightly improve the present limit on the right-handed coupling in the [Formula: see text] coupling, and have sensitivity on the relative magnitude of the CP violation to the P violation up to 8×10−2. NLC will improve the former by some factor or even an order of magnitude, and have sensitivity on the latter up to 10−3–10−2.
