and so on (Hunit would only be a convenient interface here). The question is how can I import a GHC module from within the testsuite and call its functions to test it they behave propertly? An attempt to simply import the module results in compilation error:

Failed to load interface for ‛Foo’ It is a member of the hidden package ‛ghc-7.7.20130731’. Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.

Is there a workaround for this?

You need to use "-package ghc" if you want to use the GHC API. Thanks Ian -- Ian Lynagh, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/
