Dear Monks,
If I build a Dancer application by
dancer -a MyApp

[download]
there are two tests in MyApp/t/. Running 
prove -I lib

[download]
in MyApp directory makes the both tests pass.

But, if I edit MyApp/lib/MyApp.pm, changing the second line from

use Dancer ':syntax';

[download]
to 
use Dancer;

[download]
the second test fails: 
t/002_index_route.t .. 1/2 
#   Failed test 'response status is 200 for /'
#   at t/002_index_route.t line 10.
#          got: '500'
#     expected: '200'
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 2.

[download]
The application still runs ok in a browser, though.

Can someone explain what exactly is ':syntax' for? Is the failing test the intended behaviour or a bug?
