Most of them were unmanned test flights with a few notable exclusions. Apollo 1 and her crew were destroyed in a fire weeks before the launch was scheduled. Apollo 7 was the first manned flight of the Apollo hardware, and Apollo 8 carried the first humans ever into orbit around the moon. All other flights were test flights.
