Adds a version constant for it, bwc indices, and a vagrant upgrade-from
version. Also bumps the "upgrade from" version for the backwards-5.0
test and adds `skip`s for tests that don't fail against 5.0 so we skip
them during the backwards testing.
Finally, this skips the "Shrink index via API" test because it fails
consistently for me. Inconsistently for CI, but consistently for me.
I'll work on making it consistent tomorrow.
BATS upgrade tests fails on master branch because it tries to install 2.x versions to upgrade from instead of 5.x versions. And since #18554 we should only test upgrades from 5.0.0-alpha4 versions.
This commit changes the vagrant tests so that it tries to list all the previous releases from version N-1. If nothing is found, it will fetch the current version and will run the upgrade tests with it. It works nicely with the current master 6.0.0-alpha1-SNAPSHOT. Once 5.0.0 is released it should run the test with it.
This commit adds randomization for the packaging upgrade test. In
particular, we extract a list of the released version of Elasticsearch
from Maven Central and randomize the selection of the version to upgrade
from. The randomization is repeatable, and supports the tests.seed
property. Specific versions can be tested by setting the property
tests.packaging.upgrade.from.versions.
