Change A – add assertReuseOccurred / assertNoReuseOccurred helpers Centralise the block-id reuse assertion pattern so each call site expresses *intent* rather than raw ElementsAreArray comparisons. Change B – replace sleep_for with bounded polling in getEvents() The original helper slept for a fixed 100 ms regardless of whether events had already arrived. Replace it with a tight loop that returns as soon as the expected number of events is available, with a time-out to prevent hangs in CI. Change C – convert 42 EXPECT_THAT / ElementsAreArray calls in reuse tests All six BlockManagerReuse* test functions now use the new helpers (assertReuseOccurred / assertNoReuseOccurred) and capture named snapshots (priorBlockIds*) before releaseBlocks() so the assertion reads like a sentence. Change D – split monolithic BlockManagerTest into five focused sub-tests BlockManagerTest_InitialState, _BasicAllocation, _SharedLastContextBlock, _DuplicateRequestIdThrows, _OutOfBlocksThrows. Each sub-test sets up its own state, making failures trivially locatable. Change E – add SCOPED_TRACE to KVCacheManagerLeafBlock* tests Four assertion groups in KVCacheManagerLeafBlockTest and KVCacheManagerLeafBlockWithDependentTest now carry a descriptive trace label so GTest output identifies which group failed. Change F – convert nine TEST_F PartialCopy wrappers to TYPED_TEST Introduce PartialCopyParam<StorageT, DType, Mask> and PartialCopyTypes (with preprocessor guards for BF16 / FP8) so a single TYPED_TEST(KVCacheManagerTypedTest, BlockManagerTestPartialCopy) replaces the nine near-identical TEST_F bodies. Change G – remove stale DISABLED tests, leave actionable TODOs DISABLED_KVCacheManagerAllocationTest and DISABLED_KVCacheManagerSinkTokenLengthTest were permanently skipped with no owners. Delete them and leave a one-line TODO so the intent is not lost. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

getEvents() now makes the no-event path wait the full 5 seconds.
Every zero-event assertion that uses this helper now spins until deadline because result.empty() keeps the loop alive. The non-empty path also returns on the first batch, so one logical burst can still be split across reads. A short empty-path timeout plus a brief quiet-period drain after the first event would keep the bounded wait without slowing or destabilizing the event-stream tests.

assertReuseOccurred() weakens the old reuse assertions.
The converted tests used to pin the exact block-id layout. EXPECT_GE(reusedCount, numExpectedReused) only checks a minimum, so over-reuse or the wrong subset can still pass even though the PR says coverage should be unchanged. Please make the helper assert the exact reused set/count, or accept the expected reused IDs explicitly.
Minimal tightening
- std::set<KVCacheBlock::IdType> priorSet(priorIds.begin(), priorIds.end());
- int reusedCount = 0;
- for (auto id : reuseIds)
- if (priorSet.count(id))
- ++reusedCount;
