 ## Quickstart
 
-We use [embedded-test] as our testing framework, which relies on [defmt] internally. This allows us to write unit and integration tests much in the same way you would for a normal Rust project, when the standard library is available, and to execute them using Cargo's built-in test runner.

 6. Write some documentation at the top of the `tests/$PERIPHERAL.rs` file with the pins being used and the required connections, if applicable.
+
+## Logging in tests
+
+The tests can use [defmt] to print logs. To enable log output, add the `defmt` feature to the test
+you want to run. Eg:
+
+```rust
+//! AES Test
+
+//% CHIPS: esp32 esp32c3 esp32c6 esp32h2 esp32s2 esp32s3
+//% FEATURES: defmt
+```
+
+Make sure to remove this addition before you commit any modifications.
+
+> NOTE: log output is disabled by default. Enabling it can introduce some timing issues, which
+makes some tests fail randomly. This issue affects all Xtensa devices, as well as ESP32-C2 and
+ESP32-C3 currently.
