//! Test support helpers for queue search tests.
//!
//! Responsibilities:
//! - Provide shared task builder helpers for unit tests
//!
//! Not handled here:
//! - Production code (this is test-only)
//! - Complex test scenarios (handled in individual test modules)
//!
//! Invariants/assumptions:
//! - All tasks have minimal valid defaults
//! - Helpers are simple and composable
