When async with Client(...) is used with a sync transport (the default without transport_async experiment), __aexit__ calls close_async(), which returns early without any cleanup at line 1073. This leaves session flusher, batchers, monitor, and transport resources unclosed. Users may reasonably use async with syntax in async code even without the async transport experiment, expecting proper cleanup.

The AsyncHttpTransport._get_pool_options() method always applies keep-alive socket options regardless of the keep_alive configuration setting. This differs from HttpTransport._get_pool_options() which only applies them when self.options["keep_alive"] is True. Users who explicitly set keep_alive=False will find their setting ignored when using the async transport.

The kill() method puts a _TERMINATOR in the queue (line 220) but does not reset self._queue to None. When start() is called later, it checks if self._queue is None (line 237) and reuses the existing queue containing the terminator. The new _target() task will immediately read the terminator and exit, preventing the worker from processing any new items after restart.

The test creates mock_transport = Mock(spec=AsyncHttpTransport) but in patch_loop_close._flush(), there's an isinstance(client.transport, AsyncHttpTransport) check (line 71 in asyncio.py). Mock(spec=...) creates a mock that mimics the interface but does not pass isinstance() checks - it's still a Mock instance. This causes _flush() to return early at line 72 without calling client.close_async(), making the test assertions pass vacuously if the mock is simply never called, or fail to catch regressions.

The common: httpcore[asyncio] dependency is added without a Python version constraint, but httpcore 1.x requires Python 3.8+. The common test environment includes py3.6 and py3.7 (line 21: {py3.6,py3.7,...}-common), so these tests will fail during dependency installation. This should use a version-qualified selector like {py3.8,...}-common: httpcore[asyncio] similar to how other version-specific dependencies are handled (e.g., line 338: py3.8-common: hypothesis).

The test_async_transport_concurrent_requests test sets the global scope client via sentry_sdk.get_global_scope().set_client(client) but does not register a finalizer to reset it. This can cause state leakage between tests, leading to flaky or order-dependent test failures. Compare with test_async_transport_rate_limiting_with_concurrency which properly uses request.addfinalizer(lambda: sentry_sdk.get_global_scope().set_client(None)).
