Description

derbyTesting.jar is put in a separate directory for releases, which is good in that it tends to deter folks from accidentally deploying it, but sometimes for people that do run tests, this means that it might accidentally get separated or mismatched with the product jars. It would be nice if sysinfo reported derbyTesting.jar and its version if present and could also print a warning that derbyTesting.jar should never be deployed in production.
