First, the IRS would not accept a second electronic filing as the system would reject your already used SSN's.
Now, to your question, there is no way to "disable" the filing feature of TurboTax. But, it would be extremely difficult to accidentally file a return. There are several different sections of TurboTax (Personal Info, Federal taxes, State taxes, Review, and File). Inside the File section, there are several screens were you would need to enter information such as bank accounts, sign documents, enter your AGI for filing, and finally a screen with Transmit returns. If you stay out of the File section as there is no reason for you to enter any of that information as it doesn't affect your test return, then you will not have any problems with accidentally filing another return.
