enazareno is correct.  Specifically, a <task-node> has these default properties:
    create-tasks="true"
    signal="last"  //completion of the last task also signals the default 
transition

And a <task'> element under the <task-node> by default has:
    blocking="no"

See the user guide, sections 13.3.7 and 13.3.23 for other options and what they 
all mean.

With default settings, tasks defined in a <task'> element will be automatically 
created when the <task-node> is entered.  The only reason you wouldn't want 
this behavior, is if you need to programatically determine which tasks need to 
be created based on process instance specific data; in that case, you would set 
create-tasks="false" and would need to create your task(s) with an action 
handler on the node-enter event.  Remember that if you are programatically 
creating tasks, you'll have to be careful that your blocking boolean (and other 
properties) is set according to your expectations.  Also, while the 
documentation doesn't provide for a "signaling" property on <task'> in the 
process definition XML, you can turn signaling on or off for individual 
taskInstances via the API to suit your needs when you create the tasks in your 
action handler.

If you create your tasks programatically and receive errors when trying to 
retreive them from the database, check that you have specified any appropriate 
object or circular references, ie: 

taskInstance.setToken(yourToken);
