There was a problem hiding this comment.
[For reviewers] There should be no change in the tests. The tests just divides the load and the process scope into two separate tests.

The flakiness in the test
TestConsumeMetricsWithOTelRemapperwas introduced in #309 when we added another scope in the metric.The root cause of the flakiness is the function
eventsMatch. This function sorts the APMEvents by converting it into strings and later compares them at which point it usesprotocmp.SortRepeatedfor metricset samples. The metricsets are created using maps (ref) which makes the order of metricsets undefined. While the tests use sorting on the metricset samples to get around this we still end up in an indeterministic state since the first sort doesn't sort on metricset samples (ref).We can fix the
eventsMatchfunction by first sorting the samples in eachAPMEventand then sorting theAPMEvent's themselves and this is what the PR does. In addition the PR also refactors the testTestConsumeMetricsWithOTelRemapperwhich would avoid the special issue anyway.
