Deepa Remesh commented on DERBY-1522:
-------------------------------------

I am covering a part of this in upgrade testing. I have a patch attached to 
DERBY-1521 which is pending review. In this patch, I have added a test to check 
that an upgraded database will support basic grant/revoke after switching to 
Derby SQL standard authorization. I am planning to add some more grant/revoke 
tests to be run after upgrade.

However, I am wondering if we should also test this switch for databases 
created in 10.2 itself. I mean test that a database created in 10.2 without SQL 
standard authorization can be switched to SQL standard authorization. Maybe, 
the code paths are not different for the switch of an upgraded database and a 
10.2 database ? In that case, we may not need this test.

It would also be good to know what kind of test coverage is expected to test 
the "switch".

> There has been discussions on the Derby-dev list about switch from Derby
