How can reverse('opensearch') work in the shell, but fails in a Test?

I'm trying to install django-lean into my application.

Open search is used in my app App.

I can reverse('opensearch') in the Python shell. However, in the test, reverse('opensearch') * NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'opensearch' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments

In [47]: reverse('opensearch')
Out[47]: '/opensearch.xml'
In [48]: response = client.get('/opensearch.xml')
In [49]: response.status_code
Out[49]: 200

This is an attempt to do the same from the Test, stopped by pdb.set_trace()

No fixtures found.
> /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django_lean-0.15-py2.7.egg/django_lean/experiments/tests/test_tags.py(72)doTestIntegration()
-> response = client.get("confirm_human开发者_如何学C") # this is where the Client can't find the url
(Pdb) reverse('opensearch')
*** NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'opensearch' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.

Here is the code from urls.py:

url(r'^opensearch\.xml$', app.meta.opensearch, name='opensearch'),

Finally, here is the traceroute for the failing test:

Looks like it might be Bug 11077. If so, the problem is a TestCase overriding the urlconf, as noted there in this comment: "The problem lies with the fact that the tests for both django.contrib.auth and django-registration set their TestCase.urls setting to override the default URLConf."
