Attaching a patch 'derby-514-patch3-v2.diff' for Andrews comments in derby-dev 
mail - 
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-jira-Updated%3A-%28DERBY-514%29-Integrate-upgrade-tests-into-test-suite-p3854692.html

This patch changes the build script to use a property which points to the 
location of old jars. With this change, it should be possible to run the 
upgrade test using RunTest without any additional command-line flags. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For Andrew's comments:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Changed the requirement for setting of derbyTesting.jar.path property. It 
needs to be set only if we are running tests on a different machine where the 
source files are not available. If we run tests from the machine where source 
files are available, the jars will e picked up from tools/testing/derby.

* Added better error message for the class not found exceptions. 

* I had tried to make this run with classes folder. The problem is that we may 
need to keep changing the metadata test in the older version to be able to test 
the upgrade. Currently, we are using the test classes (derbyTesting.jar) from 
new version in all cases. This separation is not possible when we use classes 
folder. I am not planning to work on this now. I am just focussing to get this 
test into a suite.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary of patch:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Changes the build to use a property derbyTesting.jar.path from ant.properties 
and use it's value for the location of the jar files from previous release. 
This property has to be set in ant.properties if the tests will be run on a 
non-development machine. If the test is run on the machine where the svn source 
files are available, it is not required to set this property. The jars checked 
into svn will be used.

* Updates building.txt with the information about new property

* During build, the new property will be read and used to set the property in 
the test properties file. Currently, it sets a property in 
Upgrade_10_1_10_2_app.properties. This needs to be generalized as more upgrade 
combinations will be tested. But I am having trouble doing it in a separate 
property file as it does not get loaded by harness. I will continue to look 
into this. 

* Changes UpgradeTester to use the new property. UpgradeTester finds out the 
location of old and new jars and hence these need not be passed into the class.

* Adds better error reporting to UpgradeTester

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tests:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran the upgrade test in following scenarios:

*  "derbyTesting.jar.path" property not set and jars checked out from svn into 
tools/testing/derby/10.1. Test passed.

*  "derbyTesting.jar.path" property not set and jars not checked out from svn. 
Test failed with message asking to check settings

*  "derbyTesting.jar.path" property set to a correct location. Test passed.

*  "derbyTesting.jar.path" property set to a wrong location. Test failed with 
message asking to check settings

*  Ran the test using classes folder in class path . Test failed with message 
asking to check settings


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next step
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* If this patch is okay, I'll submit the patch which adds a new suite with this 
test and make it part of derbyall. I checked this has no problems when using 
RunSuite
* As Andrew suggested in DERBY-1049, "When the upgrade tests are in place and 
working, we should commit the setting of this property to the repository so 
that all subversion clients fetch the jars needed by the upgrade tests." - This 
will avoid the manual step of setting svn:externals. As I mentioned previously, 
one small change from what is mentioned in DERBY-1049 is - Instead of mapping 
to derby/10.1.1.0, we need to map it to derby/10.1 since we plan to have tests 
only at {major version}.{minor version} level.

Please take a look at this patch. Thanks.
