Ok, I have written a couple of tests, two of which are currently failing
(mine are the ones with numbered suffixes 2 through 5). I am
attaching a patch that adds these tests. ERT output is below:
Thanks.  Just a few questions, before installing the patch.

+(defun clear-advice (symbol)
+  "Reset SYMBOL's function to its original unadvised definition."
+  (let ((func (symbol-function symbol)))
+    (while (advice--p func)
+      (setq func (advice--cdr func)))
+    (fset symbol func)))
Why do you need that?  AFAICT you only use it after defining sm-test7.2,
and I don't see why that call is needed.
Oh, that's actually not necessary. I put it in so I could re-run the test without restarting emacs or manually resetting the advice, and I forgot to remove it.

+(defmacro post-restore-func (func &rest body)
+  (let ((fdef (symbol-function func)))
+    `(unwind-protect
+        (progn ,@body)
+       (fset ',func ,fdef))))
+(put 'post-restore-func 'lisp-indent-function
+     (get 'prog1 'lisp-indent-function))
Since it's only used once, I don't think it's worth defining a macro for it.

Probably true. I wasn't sure how much I would end up using it, and it seemed like a potentially useful macro to have lying around when testing advice that might break core functions of emacs.

Anyway, I wasn't very creative with my test names or function names, and I'd be happy to submit a new patch with more informative names (as well as the above changes). Is there a naming convention for tests/functions that I should adhere to?
