Jean-Marc Spaggiari commented on HBASE-8275:
--------------------------------------------
Hum. We might want to find a way to have that done automatically. Because if
someone is missing one, we might miss one issue in a later release if it's
removed. Maybe we can extract the list each time we are doing a release and
submit it as a baseline for the next release compability tests?

> Key: HBASE-8275

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature

> Stack and I were discussing of ways to make binary compatibility easier to
> test than doing it completely by hand.
> One idea would be to have a tool that uses reflection to generate code that
> calls all the public methods from a list of classes. You would then compile
> this code against the current version you are on, then try it out with
> different HBase jars without recompiling.
