Hi Allen, You could write a function that uses the clojure.contrib.with-ns/with- ns macro to dip into the namespace being tested and return the private function, assigning it to a local name in the test namespace.
I need this too, and have been meaning to ping the other Stuart about either (a) adding something like this to test-is, or (b) creating a new test-helpers library in contrib that would include this function.

Is there a good solution for this? > > Allen > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
