[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

        After running ERT test and choosing various menu selections,
        I get "bwrong-type-argument" errors.

`       For example:

            ERT Results -> Show messages

[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

        Thanks.

I can't reproduce this.
Please give a minimal complete example starting from emacs -Q.

0. Obtain virtualwrapper.el ZIP file and unpack from:

      https://github.com/porterjamesj/virtualenvwrapper.el

1. cd virtualenvwrapper.el-master/

2. emacs -Q &

3. M-: (setq package-archives '(("gnu" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
               ("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/")))

4. M-: (setq package-user-dir (expand-file-name "~/.emacs.d/temp-elpa"))

4. M-x package-list-packages
     Install packages: "dash" "s" "noflet" and "with-simulated-input"

5. M-x load-file
   Load file: virtualenvwrapper.el-master/test/virtualenvwrapper-test.el

6. M-x ert RET

Wait for tests to finish...

I highly doubt this is the minimal recipe.
Nevertheless, I followed it (noflet failed to compile).
I still don't see the issue.

Are you sure that you are actually running Emacs 26.0.91 and its
associated lisp files? From the original report:

  value of $EMACSLOADPATH: /tmp/nff/de2/fedora-emacs-src/emacs-26.0/lisp

Perhaps those files are old.

M-x locate-library ert, and examine the result.
