All I can think of is:

- Always keep a backup around.

- Read the "Migration to version x" section of the release notes of v14,
v15, v16 and v17 before you test the application. That will give you
ideas what areas to test particularly well.

- Test your administrative procedures too. For example, v15 removed
the exclusive online file system backup.

Yours,
