I wonder if it is possible to start web2py in Shell mode, execute a
controller under the web2py environment.
inspect the controllers 'return' or use template.py to evaluate a view file
passing the controller return as argument.
is there something like that?
<dummy example>
$python web2py.py -S myapp -M -P
>>> db.tables
['mytable']
>>> my_return = execfile(/controllers/controller.py)
>>> print my_return['someobject']
>>> from gluon.template import *
>>> print template.parse('/views/controller.html',response._vars=my_return)
'<html>.........................</html>
</dummy example>
I guess I saw something like this in web2py_test_runner.
If something like that could be possible, this will be easy to UnitTest
web2py controllers and views.
