The first thing to do is get this down to some minimal amount of code 
that demonstrates the problem.

For example, you drag in the logging module, and do some semi-complex 
configuration.  Are you SURE your tests are getting run multiple times, 
or maybe it's just that they're getting LOGGED multiple times.  Tear out 
all the logging stuff.  Just use a plain print statement.

You've got two different TestCases here.  Does the problem happen with 
just LoaderTC, or with just NameSpaceTC?

Keep tearing out code until you can no longer demonstrate the problem.  
Keep at it until there is not a single line of code remaining which 
isn't required to demonstrate.  Then come back and ask your question 
again.
