Here is a quote from Bug#24939's discussion, regarding the technique
used by autorevert-tests.el, filenotify-tests.el and the proposed
kmacro-tests.el to collect messages issued during part of a test by
temporarily narrowing *Messages*:

The attached patch adds a new macro called ert-with-message-capture to
ert-x.el which temporarily adds advice to 'message' to collect messages.
I've also modified autorevert-tests.el and filenotify-tests.el to use
the new macro. If or when the more thorough infrastructure is
implemented, that could replace the use of advice in this macro but the
tests which use it should not have to change.
Michael, in modifying autorevert-tests.el, at the start of
auto-revert-test02-auto-revert-deleted-file, *Messages* was narrowed,
and then narrowed again before the call to auto-revert--wait-for-revert,
so it looked safe to delete the first narrowing instead of replacing it
with ert-with-message-capture. Let me know if I've missed something
there.

In autorevert-tests.el, the *Messages* buffer is narrowed systematically
prior any write-region call. I don't remember the details, but AFAIR
there were some other messages which have poisoned the tests.
I let it to you to change wherever you feel it is necessary. Tests will
show whether there are undesired side effects.
Best regards, Michael.

Making these changes didn't introduce any regressions in the relevant
tests, so I pushed them.
Gemini, please consider documenting the new macro in the ERT manual
and in NEWS.
Thanks.

There is a new error when running under GNU/Linux from a shell:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# make SELECTOR=\'file-notify-test03-autorevert-remote -C test filenotify-tests
[...]
Testing lisp/filenotify-tests.el
Running 1 tests (2017-02-05 11:42:33+0100)
Reverting buffer `file-notify-test141896xu'.

Error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
passed 1/1 file-notify-test03-autorevert-remote
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The test passes, but the error message looks suspicious. I've tried to
find where it comes from, and it seems to be the new macro
`ert-with-message-capture'. I didn't debug further; maybe Gemini could
have a look?
The bug is not visible when running the test interactively.

Best regards, Michael.
