This PR fixes a flaky test in the BestHead dispatch policy.

Problem:

The test was non-deterministic because it iterated over a map to build its test cases. This caused intermittent CI failures when the test's iteration order would fail to trigger a necessary panic.

Solution:

This change refactors the test's helper (newTestBand) to accept a variadic slice of queues instead of a map. This guarantees a deterministic iteration order, making the test reliable.

I introduced this flake during the refactor in #1202. Apologies!

This tracks #674

Hi @LukeAVanDrie. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.
