Nice.  It makes sense to describe what we want first, like this step..

Style.

	setup_sparse_entry () {

on a single line.

Why not an unconditional removal on the working tree side?

	rm -f sparse_entry &&
	git update-index --force-remove sparse_entry &&

Are there cases where we may have sparse_entry directory here?

No need to quote $# (we know it is a number).

Make sure the test writers know that they are passing a string that
will be interpreted as a printf format.  Review the comment before
the function and adjust it appropriately ("a string" is not what you
want to tell them).

Just

		>sparse_entry

is sufficient, no?

Style.

	test_sparse_entry_unchanged () {

OK.  So the expected pattern is to first "setup", do stuff that
shouldn't affect the sparse entry in the index, and then call this
to make sure?

We use the term SKIP_WORKTREE and SPARSE interchangeably here.  I
wonder if it is easier to understand if we stick to one e.g. by
saying "... does not remove 'sparse' entries" instead?  I dunno.

> +	setup_sparse_entry &&

Wow.  OK.  Makes a reader wonder what should happen when the two
operations are replaced with "git rm sparse_entry"; let's read on.

OK.  As there is nothing other than sparse_entry in the working tree
or in the index, the above two should be equivalent.

I wonder what should happen if the "add -A" gets replaced with "add .";
it should behave the same way, I think.  Is it worth testing that
case as well, or is it redundant?

The above is cumulative, and as a consequence, "git add -u <path>"
is not tested, but "git add -f -u <path>" is.  Intended?  How was
the order of the options listed in "for opt in ..." chosen?

Hmph, I am not sure what we are testing at this point.  One way to
make the final diff-files step show sparse_entry would be for "git
add --refresh" to be a no-op, in which case, the cached stat
information in the index would be different in mtime from the path
in the working tree.  But "update-index --no-skip-worktree" may be
buggy and further change or invalidate the cached stat information
to cause diff-files to report that the path may be different.

Hmph.  Should we also check if sparse_entry in the filesystem also
is not made executable, not just the entry in the index?

Makes sense.

What should "git diff sparse_entry" say at this point, I have to
wonder?

Thanks.
