Upgrade from ojs v3.0.1 / php v5.6 to ojs 3.4.0 / php 8.x

The question is quick, and perhaps generic and therefore useful to others:

What is the best upgrade path between:

  • from : OJS v3.0.x with php v5.6 on a server P (prod)
  • to : OJS v3.4.0 with php v8.x on a server T (test)

?

I’m worried about OJS/php compatibility.

I guess a sequential upgrade following the path below would be perfect, my personal thought anyway;

  1. from : OJS v3.0.x with php v5.6 to OJS v3.1.x
  2. from: OJS v3.1.x to OJS v3.2.x
  3. from: OJS v3.2.x to OJS v3.3.x
  4. from: OJS v3.3.x to OJS v3.4.0 with php v8.x on a server.

As for the PhP and server, i believe a gradual increment would also follow suit.
The Input of other experts on this matter will be highly appreciated.

Thank you.
