Ack, improved for v2. It will be reduced to 1411 lines, 60% smaller.

Changes for v2:

1. Refactor the test environment for minimalism:
   - Improve separation of concerns.
   - Move extensions to later patch series.
   - Simplify code with targeted assertions and concise comments.
2. Fix file names to avoid underscores.
3. Update the include guards to comply with CODING_STYLE.

Bernhard
