Is it safe to do that, or must we upgrade the server and clients all at the same time

This is the behavior I get when running from Visual Studio. Looking at the docs for other methods of starting the tests (ie, command line) I do not seem to see the option. My expectation was I could have different scenarios setup that I could run to
