Provide your file-like object to an explicitly instantiated TextTestRunner:
tr = unittest.TextTestRunner(stream=myTextWindow, verbosity=2)
unittest.main(testRunner=tr)
If you want to accept a verbosity option from the commandline you have to
subclass unittest.TestProgram and override its runTests() method,
unfortunately.
