Like Nigel said, if you don't use too much fancy features combined with
funky inheritance, you shouldn't have much problems upgrading.

You could try things out first to see how things go and to be able to
make corrections to your manifests if needed. Set up a new puppet master
with 2.6/2.7, copy your modules and manifests to that new server and
setup a few virtual servers to use different setups from your nodes.
This testing phase will be the longest, but it's always better to be
safe than sorry ;)
After that, upgrade your puppet master, wait a couple of days just to
see if it holds up well. Finally upgrade your clients.
