Call route yourself in play framework

How can I call a controller action (route) myself when I have the path and the parameters in variables?

I found this in the documentation (http://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.1.x/JavaFunctionalTest): 

import play.test.Helpers;
...
Result result = Helpers.routeAndCall(Helpers.fakeRequest(Helpers.GET, "/xx/Kiki"));

But the play.test package is not available in production mode. I'm using the latest play 2.1.2.

Kris, be serious... you didn't even specify Play's version, what did you try... Your question for us is I have a Car how can I do Something? - biesior
Thanks, I added more information, tell me if it's not clear yet. - Kris Pypen
Why not call it like any other method? e.g. return controllerMethod(param1, param2, ...) - 2manyprojects
I have the path as a string and the request parameters in a map, I don't know the controller method - Kris Pypen

I now use the WS.url("http://my.local.domain/....") for normal requests and the eclipse jetty httpclient for the comet requests.
