Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently we're only testing against postgres 17.

Describe the solution you'd like

We should test against supported versions to ensure changes don't break backwards compatibility with older versions. Include postgres 18 coming up soon.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context Relates to #533

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the current CI configuration (e.g., GitHub Actions) and find how Postgres version is set. Then add matrix builds for supported Postgres versions (14, 15, 16, 17, and 18). Update test scripts if needed to handle version specific behavior.
