What New Or Updated Would You Like To See?

Add more testing instructions to https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/create/create-packages#testing-your-package and https://community.chocolatey.org/courses/creating-chocolatey-packages/building-testing-and-pushing, especially about uninstall but also about upgrading (both document pages currently only mention installation testing).

Why Is It Needed?

Since Chocolatey is about keeping an installed system current, upgrades are way more frequent than installs. Also key part of software installs is that they can be uninstalled n a clean way.

So please add instructions for at least testing uninstall, but preferably also about upgrading.

Additional Context?
