The ticket is not yet updated, but the request was approved:
https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/teams/fesco/fesco.2016-01-22-17.02.log.html

The new test cases are already in place, we just need to change milestone:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Template:Installation_test_matrix#Upgrade

They use our updated terminology of "current" and "previous" Fedora release. To keep things consistent, I propose to change the current criterion [1]:
"For each one of the release-blocking package sets, it must be possible to successfully complete an upgrade from a fully updated installation of the previous stable Fedora release with that package set installed. "
into
"For each one of the release-blocking package sets, it must be possible to successfully complete an upgrade from a fully updated installation of the current and previous stable Fedora release with that package set installed. "

References section would get updated with a link to this thread. The criterion itself does not mention that by upgrade we mean a direct upgrade (not one by one release). If you think it's not clear enough, I can add some wording to the criterion (phrasing suggestions welcome) or add another description section below it.
