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.
