Rspec fails with nested singular route

Question

I have the following routes.rb file (part):

resource :user do
  resources :orders do
    post :verify, :on => :collection
  end
end

My controller spec looks like follows:

require 'spec_helper'

describe OrdersController do
  describe "#verify" do
    it "verifies a recipe" do
      post :verify
    end
  end
end

The spec fails with an ActionController::RoutingError No route matches {:controller=>"orders", :action=>"verify"} even though the route exists and correctly responds in a browser.
