Can you expand on the testing plan here?

One of the risks with multi-year migration projects is that unrelated
changes break the migration, and we don't notice.

For example, you might need to create a chutney network for each
stage, and run them on every pull request and merge. In our current
CI, that's 30-60 seconds of extra time per network, or 2-4 extra
minutes of CI time.

If you need to test different combinations of features for each stage,
let's try to do that in the same networks. Otherwise, the testing matrix
expands out very quickly.
