+Setting The Locale For Tests
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+By default, the PHPUnit Bridge forces the locale to ``C`` to avoid locale
+issues in tests. This behavior can be changed by setting the
+``SYMFONY_PHPUNIT_LOCALE`` environment variable to the desired locale:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    # .env.test
+    SYMFONY_PHPUNIT_LOCALE="fr_FR"
+
+Alternatively, you can set this environment variable in the PHPUnit
+configuration file:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+
+    <!-- https://phpunit.de/manual/6.0/en/appendixes.configuration.html -->
+    <phpunit xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
+        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://schema.phpunit.de/6.0/phpunit.xsd"
+    >
+
+        <!-- ... -->
+
+        <php>
+            <!-- ... -->
+            <env name="SYMFONY_PHPUNIT_LOCALE" value="fr_FR"/>
+        </php>
+    </phpunit>
+
+.. versionadded:: 6.4
+
+    The support for the ``SYMFONY_PHPUNIT_LOCALE`` environment variable was
+    introduced in Symfony 6.4.
