Description

This pull request refactors the SetURLVars test helper to improve testing practices and updates its usage in tests. The main focus is to enhance test reliability by leveraging Go's testing.T helper methods and to update the relevant test case accordingly.

Test helper improvements:

• Updated the SetURLVars function in test_helpers.go to accept a *testing.T parameter and call t.Helper(), improving error reporting and aligning with Go testing conventions.
• Added necessary imports to test_helpers.go to support the new parameter.

Test case updates:

• Replaced the ExampleSetURLVars example function in mux_test.go with a proper test function TestExampleSetURLVars that uses the updated SetURLVars helper and asserts the expected value using t.Errorf.
