Review comment:
       It would probably work with the tests, since we collect and manually 
trigger all scheduled executions in the close() method, before checking if the 
expected state transitions happened.
   
   But I'm not sure if it's worth introducing such behavior for the sake of 
removing the onEnter() method.
   One of the reasons why we agreed to remove onEnter() was because the change 
revealed a few test inaccuracies. Basically all of these inaccuracies have been 
found and fixed during the review of the respective tests. The onEnter() 
prototype was just done on an unreviewed version of the tests.
   
   Right now, WaitingForResources is the only state that triggers state 
transitions in the constructor.
   
   I would actually propose to revisit the decision to remove the onEnter() 
method, given the compromises we have to do to make it work (CC @tillrohrmann )
