Testing non-deterministic Prometheus metrics e.g. latency?

[MichaelRybak]

TL;DR: I'm unit-testing Prometheus metrics: server's requests count and latencies. The server is written in Go. Latencies are non-determinstic and there seems to be no good way to fake clock in Prometheus or Go. Does Prometheus provide a method similar to CollectAndCompare that lets validating a value (e.g. latency) against a range, not exact expectation? If not, would it be a good feature to add to Prometheus? Alternatively, is there a way to fake clock in Prometheus, so e.g. InstrumentHandlerDuration would propagate the pre-defined fake duration? Or, is there a good way to fake clock in Go?

• Research existing options
• Possibly propose new features to Prometheus
