[dancer-users] How do you test the internal methods of a plugin?

[Steve Dondley]

OK, I think I found a decent solution. I turned the app into an object that
I can pass to the the full qualified name of plugin's method.

package TestApp; use Dancer2; use Dancer2::Plugin::Menu; use Data::Dumper
qw 'Dumper'; get '/' => sub { return 'hello' }; get '/test' => sub { return
'hi' }; sub new { my $class = __PACKAGE__; return bless {}, $class; } my
$app = new(); Dancer2::Plugin::Menu::_do_stuff($app);
