Default knocking noise when braking....

I just changed my brake pads, rotors and lines. When I took the car for a test drive, it would make a knocking noise while braking. It did this for a while and kept getting fainter over time. Is this normal? I don't think it's doing it anymore.

Everything was torqued to spec.
anyway, the noise is all gone now. I guess the pads just had to break in a little.
but I think I need to bleed my brakes a little more.
