I am using a simple method decorator to disable logging only in a particular test method.

def disable_logging(f):

    def wrapper(*args):
        logging.disable(logging.CRITICAL)
        result = f(*args)
        logging.disable(logging.NOTSET)

        return result

    return wrapper

And then I use it as in the following example:

class ScenarioTestCase(TestCase):

    @disable_logging
    test_scenario(self):
        pass
