I just noticed another similar test dependency, this time between test_idle and test_tix. If run with -j set, the problem is not seen. This is still present in 3.6.0a4:
$ python3.6 -m test -uall -w test_idle test_tix
Run tests sequentially
0:00:00 [1/2] test_idle
can't invoke "event" command: application has been destroyed
 while executing
"event generate $w <<ThemeChanged>>"
 (procedure "ttk::ThemeChanged" line 6)
 invoked from within
"ttk::ThemeChanged"
0:00:02 [2/2] test_tix
