Absolutely, and I'm always look to add new tests so some
cross-pollination may be beneficial as well.
Currently the regression tests work with 9.0 - 9.5alpha1 (and back to
8.3, actually). The pause_on_recovery_target test is currently disabled
for 9.5 and I have not implemented recovery_target_action or
recovery_target = immediate yet. I haven't tested alpha2 yet but it
should work unless catalog or other IDs have changed.
