• @pdurbin @poikilotherm - Currently, the action only tests against version 6.0. However, this pipeline should check multiple versions. @skasberger proposed that we test from version 5.x onwards. Therefore, we need to extend the Dataverse action.

This might actually be harder to pull off than it sounds like.

DV 5.x requires Payara 5, so different base image. We could build that of course, even cache some versions images.

But to actually make this work, it might need doing some backports, because we evolved the images quite a bit when going from 5.x to recent develop, soon to be 6.1.

@poikilotherm, it's good to note that the tests on pyDataverse were only done on demo.dataverse.org up to this point. Therefore, no functionality will be lost. Also, the recent changes from version 5.x to 6.x may not affect pyDataverse testing too much since most of the endpoints pyDataverse has implemented remain the same (to my knowledge). However, it is still worth considering tests across versions in the future.

How do you think we should proceed? Stick with 6.x exclusively or work on the backports? I'd remove the ToDo here if we stick with the current case.

I tested it before on local running docker images and on our two instances we ran at AUSSDA, so something very recent, and some version half a year old or so. But never something really old, like more than 1.5y or one major version back.
