See the attached patch, which either removes noisy messages or replaces
them with `ert-info'.  I didn't know about `ert-info' when I added the
noisy messages.

As for the "Auto-saving..." messages, they are printed by calls to
`message1' in fileio.c.  There may be a way to hide them, but see the
next paragraph.

There is a behavior difference between ert's interactive runner and
batch runner.  In interactive mode all `message' output is redirected to
a buffer normally hidden, made visible only by request after the test
runs, and I expect people will look at these only when debugging failed
tests.  In batch mode `message' output is printed to stdout (or maybe
stderr) by default, mixed with ert's other output.  It may be possible
to change ert's batch runner to hide each test's `message' output,
perhaps printing it only if the test fails.  Do we have a person who is
familiar with ert that we can run this idea by?

For example, this kind of noise would also be eliminated by such a
change:

Subject: [PATCH] Reduce buffer-tests noisiness when run in batch mode.

* test/src/buffer-tests.el (overlay-modification-hooks): Remove noisy
`message' calls and use `ert-info' to log context of test
failures.  (bug#59028)
(overlay-tests-start-recording-modification-hooks): ditto.
