Variable declarations happen at the top and separately from their initializations.

var y;
var i;

}

The use of uniform should be moved out of the benchmarking loop so it doesn't interfere with the benchmark results.

y = cdf( x, alpha, beta );
if ( isnan( y ) ) {
b.fail( 'should not return NaN' );
}
}
b.toc();
if ( isnan( y ) ) {
b.fail( 'should not return NaN' );
