# Problem You should be able to create an event (`foo`) without a metric and then use `internal_events_matchers` in your specs like this: ```ruby context 'foo event' do it 'triggers foo' do expect { fetch }.to trigger_internal_events('foo') end it 'does not trigger foo' do expect { nil }.not_to trigger_internal_events('foo') end end ``` However, the above will fail with: ``` 1) Gitlab::LicenseScanning::PackageLicenses foo event triggers foo Failure/Error: raise ArgumentError, "Unknown event '#{event_name}'! #{name} matcher accepts only existing events" ArgumentError: Unknown event 'foo'! trigger_internal_events matcher accepts only existing events [snip] ``` And ``` 2) Gitlab::LicenseScanning::PackageLicenses foo event does not trigger foo Failure/Error: raise ArgumentError, "Unknown event '#{event_name}'! #{name} matcher accepts only existing events" ArgumentError: Unknown event 'foo'! trigger_internal_events matcher accepts only existing events ``` # Desired Outcome You can use the matchers for testing events that are not used in metrics. # Potential Solution(s) # How to verify Create an event `foo` and a spec with the above examples and see it pass. # Further actions needed
