 Depending on the situation, the thread in question might need to be forced to terminate. It's recommended to have a mechanism in place to terminate it (a shared variable that changes value when the thread should exit), but as a last resort, `Thread#terminate` forces the thread to finish.

+**Catadog**

+The catadog Docker image is a composable and extensible tool for development, testing, and diagnosis. The catadog container
+runs alongside the Ruby tracer and forwards trace information to the APM Test Agent.
+
+Catadog also emits helpful logging, which can be viewed in local testing or in CircleCI as a job step for tracer and contrib
+tests. Locally, to get catadog logs:
