That is because the test does not return a significance level. You choose the significance level. Commonly this is 5%, but in many domains it is not.

    $\begingroup$ You choose the significance level before doing the test. If you have a further question, please make a new post and give as much detail about your situation as possible. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 28, 2019 at 10:21
