            Bug ID: 56159
           Summary: Spurious notification that the test plan has changed
           Product: JMeter
           Version: 2.11
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Main
          Assignee: issues@jmeter.apache.org
          Reporter: sebb@apache.org

It looks as though the addition of the jmeter version attribute to the
jmeterTestPlan tag in the JMX file has the unfortunate side effect of marking
the plan "dirty" and asking whether to save it on exit.

Ideally we need to suppress the warning if the only change is the jmeter
version.
In fact the other attributes on the jmeterTestPlan should probably not cause
the plan to be marked dirty either.

It seems wrong to flag the plan as dirty if the user has not changed it and the
plan will operate identically.

Using an older plan should not trigger the question:
"Why has the plan changed?"

Now there are other instances where the test plan really does need to be
changed (e.g. an obsolete test element is replaced).
In such cases it is useful to report a change in the plan in case it affects
the user.

If every old plan triggers a dirty message, eventually the message will just be
ignored. And it will annoy users.

In my opinion this is not a problem, as I consider "Test Plan" is dirty since
it has been migrated to new version of JMeter.

What's your opinion ?
