> I've had this come up in a couple email discussions with individual DSpace 
> users.  The question to be answered is "How do I tell if an upgrade was 
> successful?"
> It seems like it should be possible to build a simple script that could 
> "compare" your local DSpace Installation Directory (i.e. [dspace]) with what 
> was built in [dspace-src]/dspace/target/dspace-[version]-build.dir/
> So, as a very simple example, perhaps we could build a script that could 
> check to be sure that the following is correct in your [dspace] directory:
> (1) Check that your [dspace]/lib/ has the same JAR files as listed in the 
> [dspace-src] target directory
> (2) Check that your [dspace]/config/ has all the same configuration files as 
> listed in [dspace-src] target directory
> (3) Check that your dspace.cfg file has the same keys (not necessarily in 
> same order though) as those listed in the out-of-the-box dspace.cfg in 
> [dspace-src] target
> Those are some extremely simple checks that we could likely make via a 
> command line script, that may be helpful to users who wonder whether their 
> upgrade was successful or not.  We'd never be able to say with 100% certainty 
> that the upgrade was successful, but we could say that the "Configurations 
> and APIs have been verified". 
> Not sure if others think this is a useful idea or not?
