 branches?

 HI SergeyBiryukov, first of all thanks for the feedback
 I'm using the trunk version in order to be able to exploit in my test
 suite all new features available
 I also thought indeed it was designed to mantain a backward compatibility
 ...
 Look for instance here:
 http://develop.svn.wordpress.org/trunk/tests/phpunit/includes/mock-image-
 editor.php

 I understand that using specific-branches phpunit lib solve the current
 issues,
 Could you tell me which is the best workflow to be used for testing
 different WP version?
 For instnace: I'm using WP_Ajax_UnitTestCase in my tests, introduced in WP
 3.4.0
 How I should manage it if I would validate my code on a previous version?
