counter := intr64(N) release := make(chan struct{}) ... for i := 0; i < N; i ++ { h.Handle(func() { <-release atomic.AddInt64(&counter, -1) }) } ...
go func(){ time.Sleep(time.Millisecond) // so we would certainly hit h.Close, before we continue for i := 0; i < N; i++ { release <- struct{}{}; time.Sleep(time.Millisecond) } // alternatively use runtime.Gosched() instead of Sleep }() h.Close() if atomic.LoadInt64(&counter) > 0 { // fail } It's not completely fool-proof, but should work well enough in practice.
