My thought is this:
It depends on what you have in the panel. Are your data cross-section data observed over ten years for, say, 3 countries (or regions within the same country)? If so, yes you can perform integration properties (what people usually call unit root test) and then test for cointegration. But if the data are quarterly or monthly, these techniques are not relevant.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [R] Question regarding panel data diagnostic
Good day R-listers,
I'm currently working on a panel data analysis (N=17, T=5), in order
to check for the spurious regression problem, i have to test for
stationarity but i've read somewhere that i needn't to test for it as
my T<10 , what do you think? if yes is there any other test i have
to perform in such case (a kind of cointegration test for small T?)
Any hint would be highly appreciated.
Ama.
