After we release a new version of JUnit 5, there are always users who encounter issues while upgrading the JUnit versions used in the projects.

As @scordio pointed out in #3933 (comment), we should raise awareness of the available version upgrade strategies.

Places we could that:

  • Release Notes
  • project README page
  • new issue overview page
  • new issue templates
  • pinning a related issue with an obvious issue title

It might be worth while to have the JUnit Platform check at startup if all its dependencies are at the right version. And if not, log a warning that directs people to the documentation.

People typically don't read documentation up front, but they do read error messages.
