In this paper we consider the wave equations with power type nonlinearities including time-derivatives of unknown functions and their weakly coupled systems. We propose a framework of test function methods and give a simple proof of the derivation of sharp upper bounds for lifespan of solutions to nonlinear wave equations and their systems. We point out that for respective critical cases, we use a family of self-similar solutions to the linear wave equation including Gauss's hypergeometric functions, which are originally introduced by Zhou [59]. We emphasize that our framework does not require the pointwise positivity of the initial data even in the high dimensional case N≥ 4. Moreover, we find a new (p, q)-curve for the system∂ t 2 u− Δ u=| v| q,∂ t 2 v− Δ v=|∂ t u| p with lifespan estimates for small solutions in a new region.
