+## Writing Tests ##
 
+### Locale
+
+The ApplicationController defines a before filter #set_locale that will set
+the default_url_options to include the appropriate default {:locale => x} param.
+
+However, paths generated in tests don't use default_url_options. This can
+create failures for certain nested routes unless you explicitly provide
+:locale => nil to the path helper. This is not needed for actual path code in
+the controllers or views, only when generating paths in tests.
+
+For example:
+
+    test "robot" do
+      login_as @user
+      visit robot_path(@robot, :locale => nil)
+    end
