Dependency management will work the same way it does today.

Each component (server or library) lists the versions of the
dependencies it is compatible with. That information goes into the
packages built for the component, and is used to ensure that a
compatible version of each dependency is installed when the package is
installed.

We control what is actually tested by using the upper constraints list
managed in the requirements repository. There's more detail about how
that list is managed in the project team guide at
https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/dependency-management.html
