True. I guess Alex' statement about "works via ZCML only" made me
offer the above suggestion as a
hail-mary-aha-this-is-obvious-and-maybe-I-dont-need-to-think-very-hard-about-helping-here
answer. ;-) But alas, ZCML vs. scanning isn't the difference at all, so I'm
not sure what worked via ZCML and what didn't work via scanning at all.
As far as integration testing of a view, you might be able to use the
render_view API if you can arrange for the context, request, and view
name to be right:
