In your global.asax.cs make sure you have this line in your Application_Start:

AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();

In each area, you should have AreaRegistration.cs something like this:

public class testAreaRegistration : AreaRegistration
{
    public override string AreaName
    {
        get
        {
            return "test";
        }
    }

    public override void RegisterArea(AreaRegistrationContext context)
    {
        context.MapRoute(
            "test_default",
            "test/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
            new { action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
        );
    }
}
