// Package testutil provides helpers to test code using the prometheus package
// of client_golang.
//
// While writing unit tests to verify correct instrumentation of your code, it's
// a common mistake to mostly test the instrumentation library instead of your
// own code. Rather than verifying that a prometheus.Counter's value has changed
// as expected or that it shows up in the exposition after registration, it is
// in general more robust and more faithful to the concept of unit tests to use
// mock implementations of the prometheus.Counter and prometheus.Registerer
// interfaces that simply assert that the Add or Register methods have been
// called with the expected arguments. However, this might be overkill in simple
// scenarios. The ToFloat64 function is provided for simple inspection of a
// single-value metric, but it has to be used with caution.
//
// End-to-end tests to verify all or larger parts of the metrics exposition can
// be implemented with the CollectAndCompare or GatherAndCompare functions. The
// most appropriate use is not so much testing instrumentation of your code, but
// testing custom prometheus.Collector implementations and in particular whole
// exporters, i.e. programs that retrieve telemetry data from a 3rd party source
// and convert it into Prometheus metrics.

// ToFloat64 collects all Metrics from the provided Collector. It expects that
// this results in exactly one Metric being collected, which must be a Gauge,
// Counter, or Untyped. In all other cases, ToFloat64 panics. ToFloat64 returns
// the value of the collected Metric.
//
// The Collector provided is typically a simple instance of Gauge or Counter, or
// – less commonly – a GaugeVec or CounterVec with exactly one element. But any
// Collector fulfilling the prerequisites described above will do.
//
// Use this function with caution. It is computationally very expensive and thus
// not suited at all to read values from Metrics in regular code. This is really
// only for testing purposes, and even for testing, other approaches are often
// more appropriate (see this package's documentation).
//
// A clear anti-pattern would be to use a metric type from the prometheus
// package to track values that are also needed for something else than the
// exposition of Prometheus metrics. For example, you would like to track the
// number of items in a queue because your code should reject queuing further
// items if a certain limit is reached. It is tempting to track the number of
// items in a prometheus.Gauge, as it is then easily available as a metric for
// exposition, too. However, then you would need to call ToFloat64 in your
// regular code, potentially quite often. The recommended way is to track the
// number of items conventionally (in the way you would have done it without
// considering Prometheus metrics) and then expose the number with a
// prometheus.GaugeFunc.
