What's put me off implementing the sub _dancer approach is that (as far as I can see) you need to do that in every module that provides routes, which might be dozens; it would be preferable not to have to go through each one and make sure they're in a _dance block. If you mix routes and functions... I guess it would still work, but it would feel a bit strange having other subs within sub _dance{...}. Paul's email has triggered a thought, and indeed the following hack works for me (on Dancer1 anyway, which is present on the machine I'm on right now). There is probably a much better way of generating $name that won't cause conflicts (maybe refaddr?). The question is - where should something like this go? sub get { my $route = shift; my $code = shift; my $name = $route =~ s/[^a-z0-9]/_/rig; my ($pkg) = caller; Sub::Install::install_sub({ code => $code, into => $pkg, as => $name }) if 1; Dancer::get $route, $code; } # Setting "if 1" to "if 0" falsely gives me 100% coverage, so it's definitely the install_sub that's doing it.

When last time I ran the tests of my Dancer2 based app through Devel::Cover it did not provide any report for the routes. If I use names subroutines and set them as

get '/' => \&serve_index; sub serve_index { }

then Devel::Cover takes those subs into account.

Do you know how can I convince Devel::Cover to report properly even with anonymous subs?

This is something I still want to fix within Devel::Cover if I can. But for now, the best workaround that I have is to put everything into a sub and call that: sub _dancer { get '/' => sub { } get '/login' => sub { } } _dancer; Not ideal, but perhaps the best of a bad bunch.
