This is hard to follow. Maybe instead document the steps the test takes. For 
example maybe something like: Suspend Thread R via breakpoint. Thread T calls 
j.l.Thread.resume() on Thread R, resulting in Thread T blocking in 
blockOnDebuggerSuspend. Resume Thread R using ThreadReference.resume(). Verify 
that Thread T is no longer  blocked in blockOnDebuggerSuspend.

Also, it would be nice if thread names in the description matched the names 
used in the implementation.
