Hi Bryan,
There used to be a wiki page devoted to upgrade testing, but I see that
the link is broken here: http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/DerbyTesting
I think what you have to do is this:
1) Create
org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.tests.upgradeTests.Changes10_6,
modelling it on Changes10_5
2) Add tests to that class. Each test is a switch statement and each
case in the switch statement is an upgrade phase. The phases are
documented in UpgradeChange
3) Wire Changes10_6 into
org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.tests.upgradeTests._Suite and add
10.5 to the OldVersions table
4) Put the 10.5 jar files into a directory parallel to the other
directories of old releases so that they will be picked up by the
upgrade machinery
Hope this helps,
-Rick

As part of my work on DERBY-2487, I need to put in place the
basic infrastructure for upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6. At the
current time, I just need to add a couple system procedures,
but I assume that it would be good if we put all the basic
machinery in place at once?
Is there a nice svn revision that I can have a look at which
outlines the changes I need to make? Or a wiki page? Or maybe
could the person who made the changes for an earlier release
outline the basic steps?
thanks,
bryan
