I would agree with this from most applications both open source and commercial license software they will provide infromation on how to upgrade and new features, and of course the software, but its still up to those maintaining their sites that are using the software to do the upgrading and test and to fix any errors that may crop up due to differences from one version to the next. One upgrade we did was where the company changes significently the javascript processor embedded in the system, so if you developed the site in JavaScript Pages instead of JavaServer Pages, guess what, you had a lot of work to do. BTW we learned that information from other developers and connections we had in their online community, not from the company itself.


In all seriousness, how could there be such a tool?  Most of what Tomcat
does and provides is detailed in the servlet/JSP specs: it must handle
WAR files, it must service JSPs, and so on.  In turn, most of the
upgrade process involves you, the developer, testing and adjusting your
app to fit the new specs.  Looking at the upgrade guide I've assembled,
there were only a couple of changes to Tomcat config files.
