Description

I intend to work on an integration test suite for Solr, to test for issues to deal with back compat, rolling upgrades etc.
The interface for the test suite, as I'm planning, would be to have it accept two versions of Solr (either released versions or trunk/branch).

I work on SolrCloud, and we need something like this to enable us to upgrade more frequently. I had a conversation with @Ishan Chattopadhyaya, who emphasised to me the need to have something like this.

If there's already any ongoing effort in doing this, I can help out there. Please let me know.
