↑ until 1956 it was the debugging oriented period, when testing was often associated to debugging: there was no clear difference between testing and debugging. D. Gelperin & B.

↑ From 1957–1978 there was the demonstration oriented period where debugging and testing was distinguished now – in this period it was shown, that software satisfies the requirements. D.

↑ The time between 1979–1982 is announced as the destruction oriented period, where the goal was to find errors. D. Gelperin & B. Hetzel (1988). “The Growth of Software Testing”. CACM. 31 (6). ISSN0001-0782.Quản lý CS1: sử dụng tham số tác giả (liên kết)
↑ 1983–1987 is classified as the evaluation oriented period: intention here is that during the software lifecycle a product evaluation is provided and measuring quality. D. Gelperin & B.

↑ From 1988 on it was seen as prevention oriented period where tests were to demonstrate that software satisfies its specification, to detect faults and to prevent faults. D. Gelperin & B.
