use this:  
[http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/TestUploadedFile.html](http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/TestUploadedFile.html)

like:  
file =  
ActionController::TestUploadedFile.new(Test::Unit::TestCase.fixture\_path

- ‘/files/test.gif’, ‘image/gif’)

post(:uploader, :file =\> get\_file)

and then test if entries in your db are as expected and the file exists  
in destination path
