     26  * An implementation of {@code Iterable} which throws an exception on all
     27  * invocations of the {@link #iterator()} method after the first, and whose
     28  * iterator is always unmodifiable.
     29  *
     30  * <p>The {@code Iterable} specification does not make it absolutely clear what
     31  * should happen on a second invocation, so implementors have made various
     32  * choices, including:
     33  *
     34  * <ul>
     35  * <li>returning the same iterator again
     36  * <li>throwing an exception of some kind
     37  * <li>or the usual, <i>robust</i> behavior, which all known {@link Collection}
     38  *     implementations have, of returning a new, independent iterator
     39  * </ul>
     40  *
     41  * <p>Because of this situation, any public method accepting an iterable should
     42  * invoke the {@code iterator} method only once, and should be tested using this
     43  * class. Exceptions to this rule should be clearly documented.
     44  *
     45  * <p>Note that although your APIs should be liberal in what they accept, your
     46  * methods which <i>return</i> iterables should make every attempt to return
     47  * ones of the robust variety.
     48  *
     49  * <p>This testing utility is not thread-safe.
