It is perfectly possible to do tests on a specific version and test
upgrade paths using CREATE EXTENSION and ALTER EXTENSION which support
versioning in a SQL regression script, say:
CREATE EXTENSION foo VERSION "0.1";
-- Do stuff
ALTER EXTENSION foo UPDATE TO "0.2";
-- Do other stuff

You are sure to get answers here, most folks on this list have likely
the experience of working on extensions.
