Don't worry, we are all trapped by that at some point.
One way would be to generate by yourself dumps from an older version
by yourself, as documented by src/bin/pg_upgrade/TESTING, part DETAILS
(the part about USE_MODULE_DB=1 is very important). Then you can
reuse the SQL files by specifying an old dump files in the TAP tests
of pg_upgrade. The buildfarm does exactly that.
For every commit, doing this much testing is a bit annoying, and I
face this issue less than once a year for anything I apply. So let's
say that I trust the buildfarm to report back at this stage ;)
