+A new test assertion context-manager, :meth:`~unittest.TestCase.assertLogs`,
+will ensure that a given block of code emits a log message using the
+:mod:`logging` module.  By default the message can come from any logger and
+have a priority of ``INFO`` or higher, but both the logger name and an
+alternative minimum logging level may be specified.  The object returned by the
+context manager can be queried for the :class:`~logging.LogRecord`\ s and/or
+formatted messages that were logged.  (Contributed by Antoine Pitrou in
+:issue:`18937`.)
