Osäkerhet över ett rättsfaktums existens kan lösas genom att en av parterna i en rättegång åläggs bevisbördan för detta faktum. Den svenska lagstiftaren har i de flesta fall överlämnat åt domstolarna att lösa bevisbördefrågan. I doktrin och praxis har det därför utvecklats olika teorier om hur bevisbördefrågan ska lösas. Eftersom bevisbördans placering kan bli avgörande för utgången i målet är detUncertainty over a dispositive fact can be solved by placing the burden of proof on one of the parties in the trial. In most cases, the Swedish legislature has handed over to the courts to resolve the burden of proof issue.

Från att den svenska synen på avtalsförhållanden tidigare betonat parternas avtalsfrihet och starkt präglats av en restriktivitet mot att fylla ut avtal med förpliktelser som inte uttryckligen följer av dessa, har utvecklingen på avtalsrättens område gått emot en syn som snarare ser avtalsförhållandet som ett samarbetsförhållande än ett motpartsförhållande. Svenska avtalsparter har i takt med den The Swedish view of contractual relations has previously emphasized the parties’ contractual freedom and has been characterized by a restrictiveness towards imposing obligations on the parties beyond what expressly follows from the agreement.

Först på 1930-talet fick testamentet sin nuvarande form i testamentslagen.
