Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-5863:
---------------------------------------
Hi,
I think to be safe in TestBackwradsCompatibility(3.x) we should also do a check
on the reported SegmentInfos version! So if we backwardstest a 4.0 index, we
should check the version number with the version constant.
This would go inline with renaming all indexes to have a better naming scheme
(according to LUCENE_x_x_x constants). We could then do something like
backwardsReader.getSegmentInfos().getVersion() == LUCENE_x_x_x.
We can do this in a separate issue, I would help with the renaming task (please
Robert, don't complain about this comment again), I just posted it for
completeness to collect ideas. The smoker stuff also does not really belong
here.

> Currently the versioning here is a total mess, and its inconsistent across
> bugfix releases.
> We should just generate back compat indexes for every release: regardless of
> whether the index format changed, even for bugfix releases. This ensures at
> least we try to test that the back compat is working.
