Three Waves of Software Development -

Â Wave Â	Â Type of application Â	Â Development Style Â	Â Test style Â
1.	Desktop	Event-Driven framwork surrounds individual procedural functions The common style is to have a hierarchical set of menus presenting a set of commands.	Test each function agaist a written functions specification.
2.	Client/Server	Structured programming command organized into hierachical menu lists with each client function having its own code. The common style is to combine a common dropdown menu bar with graphical windows contain controls.	Test each function against a written functional specification and test the server for its throughput to server clients.
3.	Web-enabled	Visual Integrated development tools facilitate object-oriented design patterns. The common style is to provide multiple paths to accomplishing tasks. (The net effect is that you can’t just walk through a set of hierarchical menus and arrive at the same test result any more.)	Capture/record/ playable watches how an application is used and then provides reports comparing how the playback differed from the original recording.
