Subject: [Db-derby Wiki] Update of "TenTwoApplicationTesting" by KatheyMarsden

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Db-derby Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by KatheyMarsden:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Derby's FowardCompatibility goal is to allow any application written against the public interfaces of an older version of Derby to run, without any changes, against a newer version of Derby.  Any incompatible changes should be a concious decision and be recorded in Jira with the "Existing Application Impact" checkbox.
  
- To verify this is true for the 10.2 release, please test applications that use Derby and make sure we have provided as seamless an upgrade as possible for existing applications.  Try your own application or some other application that you use.  The table below has a few examples.  See [http://db.apache.org/derby/integrate/index.html Derby Resources] and UsesOfDerby for more possiblities.

+ == How to do Application Testing for 10.2 ==
+  1. Download the latest snapshot from [http://db.apache.org/derby/derby_downloads.html Derby downloads] or the latest 10.2 unofficial build by following the link the same page. (Check test results first if using the unofficial build.)
+  2. Try an application. Perform a tutorial, do formal regression tests or just do something ad hoc. Note: There is no in-place upgrade to/from 10.2, so typically you want to make a new database from scratch.
