Comment (by birgire):

 The {{{WP_Test_REST_Autosaves_Controller}}} runs before
 {{{WP_Test_REST_Revisions_Controller}}} when the {{{restapi}}} group is
 tested.

 I did verify that changing the execution order, by changing the filename
 from  {{{rest-autosaves-controller.php}}} to {{{rest-zautosaves-
 controller.php}}}, will run the tests successfully.

 We could try to filter {{{DOING_AUTOSAVE}}} out from the test methods, but
 that would need some extra changes to core functions.

 There is no filterable {{{wp_doing_autosave()}}} that we could use in
 {{{wp_save_post_revision()}}}.

 So I searched for any open tickets for this, and found #44786 and #43760.


 So if we want to use the filter approach, to run the tests successfully,
 then this ticket would be blocked by those tickets.
