Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk> added the comment:

TextTestRunner is initialised with a stream to output messages on that defaults 
to sys.stderr. The correct way to redirect messages is to construct it with a 
different stream. 

If you want a redirectable stream then construct the runner with a stream that 
delegates operations to a 'backend stream' but allows you to redirect it.

Fixing TextTestRunner to dynamically lookup up sys.stderr would not be 
compatible with systems that redirect sys.stderr but *don't* expect this to 
prevent test run information from being output.

I suggest closing as wontfix.
