Kathey Marsden commented on DERBY-4170:
---------------------------------------

Created the branch.  The command so I have it for reference next time was:
svn copy -r 689064  
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/derby/code/branches/10.4/  
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/derby/code/branches/10.4_10.5testCompat/ -m 
"Creating compat test branch for running 10.4 tests against 10.5. based off of 
10.4.2.0"

Now we just need to identify what test changes need to be backported to get the 
tests on the branch to run cleanly against 10.5.

> It would be useful to have a a branch  based off of 10.4 that  has the 
> expected test and canon changes for 10.4 tests run against 10.5 which reflect 
> intentional behavior changes.  This is useful for soft upgrade and 
> client/server compatibility testing, so that the same failures don't have to 
> be analyzed repeatedly.  It also makes for good documentation of intended 
> behavior changes.
