 I am bad at the game so I edit the wiki
+Below stolen shamelessly from the MediaWiki Scribunto articles
+==Examples==
+===Invoking module directly===
+Given [[Module:Test]] with the following contents:
+<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
+local p = {}
+function p.main(frame)
+   local args = frame.args
+   mw.log("log test")
+   return args[1]..args["sep"]..args[2]
+end
+return p
+</syntaxhighlight>
+The following invoke call:
+<code><nowiki>{{#invoke:Test|a|sep=;|b}}</nowiki></code>
+Can be simulated accurately with the following code in the debug console:
+<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
+=p.main(
+   mw.getCurrentFrame():newChild{
+      title="Module:Test",
+      args={"a",["sep"]=";","b"}
+   }
+)</syntaxhighlight>
+Note that in this example the element in the export table which is being evaluated is called "main".
+====Simplified version====
+If the module you are debugging does not use any [[Extension:Scribunto/Lua_reference_manual#Frame_object|frame object methods]] (such as <code>frame:preprocess()</code>), like the example [[#Invoking module directly|above]], then the frame object analog(?) does not have to be complete, and the debugging code can be simplified into the following:
+<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
+=p.main{
+   args={"a",["sep"]=";","b"}
+}</syntaxhighlight>
