I don't believe you can. You could make them private functions, and
then test them by referring directly to their vars, e.g.

(#'your.namespace/private-function ...)

But in general, your tests should be testing your public interface,
not a specific implementation. Your tests shouldn't care what your
code does behind the scenes, so long as the publicly accessible
functions return the correct result.
