This may be a little off topic, but does this, or any other framework, 
solve some testing inconveniences that exist in Clojure and probably other 
functional languages:
1) testing recursive functions. I want to test what a recursion STEP does, 
not the whole function. Can I mock 'recur'?
2) testing sequence, esp. lazy
3) IoC typically makes code more testable. What are Clojure alternatives 
for IoC? Pass all dependencies as parameters to your function? 

I wonder if code=data philosophy of Lisp enables some testing techniques 
that are impossible in languages like Java. Typically you can only test a 
function programmatically, not arbitrary code block. But you can probably 
introspect code very easily in Clojure, and test parts, regardless if they 
are functions or not. A test framework could support that in principle...

I found that functional code is harder to separate, which would make it 
harder to test... 

Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Julian
