To prepare for upgrading to SQL 2016, I'm thinking of installing a developer version of 2016 on a test server, already running SQL 2005.
Are there any "gotchas", or special considerations I need to consider ?? TIA

The main one is whether SQL 2016 will install on the OS that you have. The earliest OS that SQL 2016 will install on is Server 2012, and it has to be x64, there's no x86 version for SQL 2016.
