I'd like to avoid duplication, not cripple the testsuite. That's why I was talking about a helper. Some code might be better at illustrating:

```js
assertParseDate function( locale, input, pattern, output ) {
	deepEqual( Globalize().parseDate( input, pattern ), output, pattern );
}
assertParseDate( "pt", "2010 T3", { skeleton: "yQQQ" }, date );
```

This helper is very specific to this particular test, but it should be pretty straight forward to make this a little more generic so that it can be used for several assertions.
