Agreed. Any cluster project needs a cluster testing framework.

pgpool-II project runs "build farm" which runs cluster regression
tests every day. The tests includes several versions of pgpool-II and
PostgreSQL combinations using docker. Still it needs more tests but
even with limited test cases, it is pretty usefull to detect bugs.
