This brief update highlights some intriguing commits to the [scylla-cluster-tests.git master](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests) from the past week. The range of commits covered is 3d323707…d3c93ecd.

During this period, there were 18 non-merge commits made by 5 authors. Here are some of the notable changes:

A [new ‘hydra’ version](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/3d32370733caa48cfe5af0014e1a1b1bb3a48a37) was released, featuring updated k8s components.

In the OSS-\>Enterprise upgrade path, [we now recover system tables from a snapshot while performing node rollback](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/afd9742f1a1950dd5fe92bcc8d9c0fc8440c6abb). This change was made to test the upgrade path and avoid the `malformed_sstable_exception` error.

We also [updated the Scylla-manager version in K8s tests to 3.2.5](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/2f6fba5f9320fb998ea8e7b19bcf54706bf03b58). The latest version now supports ARM instance types.

Work has been outlined for [restructuring the Jenkins jobs](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/b97d90c51730aac565aca45a6e7cd2399aed56b1), which will allow us to have greater control and the ability to extend it when necessary.

As `COMPACT STORAGE` is being deprecated, [we have removed its setting in the code](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/39aa984b474d6de203cbfe8a3ff8032673c81e50). However, we will continue to test it in functional tests.

Lastly, we are gearing up for testing Scylla Kafka connectors on a large scale and have prepared [a design for testing it](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/d3c93ecdd3ba57efb6b2a6b10a8617f68cd631f0).

Stay tuned for the next issue of last week in scylla-cluster-tests.git master!
