Testing private extension methods.

0 votes
Is it possible to test a private static method (extension method).

I am having little to no luck on finding a workable solution.

I would like to test the following passing a fake instance: 


    public static class XBRLExtensions
    {
        private static DateTime StartDate(this Instance instance)
        {
            var itm = instance.GetItemByName(Resources.PeriodStartDateFieldName);

            return DateTime.Parse(itm.SpecifiedValue);
        }
    }


any help would be greatly appreciated :)

I got it to work using a private accessor.

I couldn't get the accessor working yesterday... so today I wiped it out and started again and all works as expected. 
        [TestMethod()]
        [DeploymentItem("XBRLRulesEngine.dll")]
        public void StartDateTest()
        {
            var instance = Isolate.Fake.Instance<Instance>();
            DateTime expected = new DateTime(); // TODO: Initialize to an appropriate value
            DateTime actual;
            actual = XBRLExtensions_Accessor.StartDate(instance);
            Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual);
        }
