    Metrics are not supported yet in Dataflow streaming.
    
     - The Dataflow service automatically shuts down jobs when their input 
watermarks reach infinity, so we don't need metrics for that.
     - Counting `PAsserts` is nice but given the current architecture less of a 
critical concern. And anyhow, Dataflow just doesn't support it yet!

    Do not rely on metrics in streaming TestDataflowRunner
    
    The Dataflow service automatically shuts down jobs when their
    input watermarks reach infinity, and other functionality can be
    restored when the feature is restored to the Dataflow service.

> Currently, we are lacking the metrics by which the TestDataflowRunner 
> determines that a job is complete and that all PAsserts ran.
> We do not need to use the watermark metrics - the service handles shutdown 
> now.
> We should aim to restore PAssert counting, though the new PAssert 
> architecture (both that already implemented as well as future plans) 
> significantly mitigate the risk.
