I want to test whether coefficients in one linear regression are different from each other or whether at least one of them is significantly different from one certain value, say

    The car package has a simple function to do that.

    First, fit your model:

    model <- lm(Sepal.Length ~ Sepal.Width + Petal.Length, data = iris)
    

    Than you may test different linear hypothesis using the linearHypothesis function, for instance:

    library(car)
    
    # tests if the coefficient of Sepal.Width = Petal.Length
    linearHypothesis(model, "Sepal.Width = Petal.Length")
    Linear hypothesis test
    
    Hypothesis:
    Sepal.Width - Petal.Length = 0
    
    Model 1: restricted model
    Model 2: Sepal.Length ~ Sepal.Width + Petal.Length

    # Other examples:
    # tests if the coefficient of Sepal.Width = 0
    linearHypothesis(model, "Sepal.Width = 0")
    
    # tests if the coefficient of Sepal.Width = 0.5
    linearHypothesis(model, "Sepal.Width = 0.5")
    
    # tests if both are equal to zero
    linearHypothesis(model, c("Sepal.Width = 0", "Petal.Length = 0"))

    You can compare the coefficients list from each respective model (say mod1 and mod2), as in:

    diff=merge(mod1$coefficients, mod2$coefficients, by=0, all=TRUE)
    diff[is.na(diff)]=0
    diff$error=abs(diff$x-diff$y)
    diff[order(diff$error, decreasing=TRUE),]
    

    This produces a data frame sorted by the absolute value of the difference in coefficients, i.e.:

        Row.names            x            y        error
    1 (Intercept) -0.264189182 -0.060450853 2.037383e-01
    6          id  0.003402056  0.000000000 3.402056e-03
    3           b -0.001804978 -0.003357193 1.552215e-03
    2           a -0.049900767 -0.049417150 4.836163e-04
    4           c  0.013749907  0.013819799 6.989203e-05
    5           d -0.004097366 -0.004110830 1.346320e-05
    

    If the slopes are not what you are after, you can access the other coefficients using the coef() function:

    coef(summary(model))
    

    To get Pr(>|z|), for example, use:

    coef(summary(model))[,"Pr(>|z|)"]
