We establish a functional central limit theorem for Ripley's K-function for two classes of point processes. One is the class of point processes having exponential decay of correlations and further satisfying a conditional m-dependence condition. The other is a family of Gibbs point processes. We illustrate the use of our theorem for goodness-of-fit tests in simulations.
