it worked like a charm.
Another option is injection:
import foo
def window_date(...):
...
foo.window_date = window_date
The problem is that I *want* the functionality of the existing
window_date() because that's part of what's being tested.
Peter's suggestion of injection to the module namespace via
functools.partial() to specify the missing parameter was the tip
I needed to be able to write tests that exercised things properly
without overly invasive changes to the code. But thanks for your
idea.
