### Description Currently it is difficult for smoketester to "keep up" with supported java versions, which are moving faster these days. @uschindler ran into it with the release vote for 9.10, and I ran into it on #12753 From Uwe: > JAVA_HOME must run be Java 11 (in 9.x) At moment you can pass "--test-java17 <dir>", but this one is also checked to be really java 17 (by parsing strings from its version output), but I'd like to pass "--test-alternative-java <dir>" multiple times and it would just run all those as part of smoking, maxbe the version number can be extracted to be printed out. So I think the smoketester should require a specific version and check it, for JAVA_HOME. This should be the minimal required java version. But we should also allow passing other JDKs too. This would make it easier to maintain the logic going forwards. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
