After a historical survey on integrable nonlinear partial differential equations, we briefly review three methods often used to obtain their exact solutions, i.e. the Bäcklund transformation, the Darboux transformation and the dressing method introduced by Zakharov and Shabat in 1979. Then we elucidate their interrelations.
