OpenTelemetry Express instrumentation does not match Sentry instrumentation

[timfish]

Which SDK are you using?

@sentry/node-experimental

SDK Version

latest

Steps to Reproduce

When adding integration tests for @sentry/node-experimental, I started by using the assertions from the @sentry/node tests.

It looks like:

• transaction for regex routes ends up as just /
• data.url is now the full URL rather than just the path
• Http status code tag is not a number rather than string
• Middleware
  • Descriptions have changed
  • op is gone

I'll add anything else I find!

Good findings!

transaction for regex routes ends up as just /

Hmm, this comes directly from OTEL - not sure if/how we can/want to change this 🤔 what is the actual path that was used in this example?

data.url is now the full URL rather than just the path

I wonder if the OTEL behavior is not more correct there? I see in other places we actually use a full URL there, but not sure what is expected here 🤔 cc @AbhiPrasad ?

Http status code tag is not a number rather than string

Oops, I will fixe this!

Middleware Descriptions have changed & op is gone

Hmm I wonder if we want to/can handle this. can you provide a diff (what it was/became)? Then I can see if we can handle these specifically!

what is the actual path that was used in this example?

It's for this route:

app.get(['/test/arr/:id', /\/test\/arr[0-9]*\/required(path)?(\/optionalPath)?\/(lastParam)?/], (_req, res) => {
 res.send({ response: 'response 4' });
});

For middlewarre, the Sentry instrumentation:

 spans: [
 expect.objectContaining({
 description: 'corsMiddleware',
 op: 'middleware.express.use',
 }),
 ],

For otel, the descriptions have changed like this, op has become origin?

 expect.objectContaining({
 description: 'middleware - corsMiddleware',
 origin: 'auto.http.otel.express',
 }),

For middlewarre, the Sentry instrumentation:

 spans: [
 expect.objectContaining({
 description: 'corsMiddleware',
 op: 'middleware.express.use',
 }),
 ],

For otel, the descriptions have changed like this, op has become origin?

 expect.objectContaining({
 description: 'middleware - corsMiddleware',
 origin: 'auto.http.otel.express',
 }),

I'd say the description is OK (it's different, but not wrong - this comes from otel directly).
Origin is "additionally", this is unrelated to that, so alright there. I guess the main issue is the missing op 🤔 I'll take a look if I can add this somehow to keep the op in there!

Given it seems like OTEL totally drops the ball with paramaterizing with multiple routers, we might have to combine the OTEL integration with ours 😢 (so that we can support multiple routers and dont regress too heavily).

Alternative is that we export an integration that just supports multiple routers, and then people opt-into that, but its not the best UX.
