A mixin trait to get a fresh empty metric and health check registry every time.
Often a singleton service class defines a gauge with a static name. However, during testing multiple instances
are needed. Unfortunately the metrics registry doesn't allow registering a gauge under the same name twice.
This is not a problem when a new registry is used for each instance.
The same is the case for health checks (since dropwizard-metrics 4.1).
*Example*
With the following gauge in class Example:
class Example(db: Database) extends nl.grons.metrics4.scala.DefaultInstrumented {
// Define a gauge with a static name
metrics.gauge("aGauge") { db.rowCount() }
}
This trait can be mixed in with any instance of Example:
val example = new Example(db) with FreshRegistries
