When I start emacs with -Q, load the test file, and then either run all
tests with `M-x ert RET t RET', or each individually with `M-x ert RET
"todo-test-todo-quit02" RET' etc. in any order, also with reruns, all
tests pass and I get no prompt for a file.  Same when invoking
`emacs -batch -l ert -l /path/to/test/lisp/calendar/todo-mode-tests.el -f
ert-run-tests-batch-and-exit' from the shell.

The tests todo-test-todo-quit02 and todo-test-item-highlighting
shouldn't have any need to display an archive buffer.  How did you run
the tests such that you got prompted for a file and what was the prompt?
