Myrna van Lunteren resolved DERBY-5997.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
Marking duplicate of DERBY-5446
> Data source serialization tests use checked in binaries instead of using the
> normal upgrade test framework
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-5997
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5997
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Test
> Reporter: Dag H. Wanvik
>
> The method of testing that Derby can deserialize serialized data sources from
> older releases preserving upward compatibility, uses a set of checked in
> binary files, cf.
>
> java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/testData/serializedDataSources/*.ser
> files. These have not been added to or updated since 10.3, it seems. It would
> be good to use the "only source" principle in the repo in this case too, and
> integrate this checking into the general upgrade test framework we have.
> Presently, one has to generate these files manually using the tool
> "SerializeDataSource" manually for each release and check in the results.
