Does you test script use TT2?

It's b/c TT2 has the magic dot.  hash.key gives you the
element while object.method calls the method and gives
you the result.  In your case Some::Object needs a
"buttons" accessor method.

Less spaces: 

[%- USE dumper(Indent=2,Varname='VAR') -%]
[%- MACRO dump(this) dumper.dump(this) | html | replace(" {4}"," ") -%]
