pkg/utils/predicate/impl/panic.go:12

• The function documentation still mentions that 'panic(nil) is considered an error', but the implementation has been changed to accept panic(nil) as a valid panic. This documentation is now outdated and should be updated or removed to reflect the new behavior.

// Panics verifies that the value under test is a callable function that panics.
// Special case using panic(nil) is considered an error because common recover()
// code will not catch it.
