Postgres 9.6 is deprecated, we need to upgrade to a version which is compatible with Django 1.11.20.

Django Docs mentions that any Postgres version(>9.3) should be compatible with Django 1.11.20.

Is there any way to verify that both versions are fully compatible and no code will break due to upgrade.

Note: we don't have much unit tests.

Isn't Django 1.11 end-of-life? Maybe look into upgrading that too. https://endoflife.date/django – Nick ODell Dec 22 '21 at 17:27
Yes, this is in our future plans but right now we need to upgrade posgresql version only. – shivam garg Dec 22 '21 at 17:33
What if you just tried the new version in your staging environment? – Nick ODell Dec 22 '21 at 17:39
Yes, we can try that, but currently looking for any supported compatible version which community might know. – shivam garg Dec 22 '21 at 17:49
I have a 1.11.x Django app running against Postgres 12.9. – Adrian Klaver Dec 22 '21 at 22:08
Thanks, @AdrianKlaver for your input. This makes sense to us as v12.9 or before were released before the depreciation of Django 1.11. – shivam garg Dec 24 '21 at 05:25
FYI, I just did quick change to point at a Postgres 14.1 instance with Django 1.11 and it loaded and ran. The tests ran fine with exception of recent changes I have not updated tests for. Still I would probably do the move in steps. – Adrian Klaver Dec 24 '21 at 16:07
Please edit the question to limit it to a specific problem with enough detail to identify an adequate answer. – Community Dec 31 '21 at 07:31
