Provide option to limit compatbility test to combinations that include trunk
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DERBY-5145
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5145
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Test
    Affects Versions: 10.8.0.0
            Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen


The compatibility test by default tests all possible client/server 
combinations. This includes testing already released versions against each 
other, like 10.6.2.1 client against 10.1.2.1 server. Testing for 
incompatibilities between already released versions isn't of much interest for 
the ongoing development. For example, when testing a change on trunk, you're 
really only interested in the combinations that have trunk either on the server 
side or on the client side. If we could filter out the combinations that didn't 
test any code on trunk (or some other branch we want to test), the time to run 
the tests could be significantly reduced.
