The failure logs are from a run where both tests 1 and 2 failed.
Thank you for sharing the logs.
I think that the problem seems to match what Alexander Lakhin
mentioned[1]. Probably we can fix such a race condition somehow but
I'm not sure it's worth it as setting autovacuum = off and
autovacuum_max_workers = 1 (or a low number) is an extremely rare
case. I think it would be better to stabilize these tests. One idea is
to turn the autovacuum GUC parameter on while setting
autovacuum_enabled = off for each table. That way, we can ensure that
autovacuum workers are launched. And I think it seems to align real
use cases.
