Emacs is big, emacs is god, emacs makes unit tests a major PITA
ERT doesn't have much to help with this, but Buttercup has a number of facilities to help with controlling the environment around each test: https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/emacs-buttercup/

Emacs’s Builtin Elisp Cheat Sheet
> (For example, when trying to test things out I haven't really found a way much better than typing into scratch, selecting code and running it while staring at messages....)
Are you talking about when you're noodling, trying to figure how things work, or actually trying to build something?
For playing around, I found that scratch works ok, but I found a better workflow.
I end up using a daily note in org-roam, with #begin_src elisp... I then tag the heading with :REFILE:ELISP: so I can always find it later. Basically evaluate everything inline within that org-babel block.
When I'm building something, or driving towards a specific goal, I use buttercup [0] to write actual unit tests. If I squint, it kinda looks like TDD.
Finally, for debugging of running elisp, take a look at edebug [1]. It's a pretty standard looking debugger (if you used something like gdb). By default emacs uses debug which is not as friendly.
