(This is 5.2, don't know 5.1 situation)

If some code is called through require, then the chunk has the name given to require as it's first argument, if executed, there are no arguments to the chunk.

So, for testing, I do

local requirename = …
if requirename then
	return moduletable
end

--tests go here
