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