I would suggest that you write the test first and then code. 
This test code would be in your functional tests which exercise
the controller.
You will need to do the get request for the file and then have
your assertions check that what you get back is what you expect,
a PDF file in this case.

Have fun.

Do you mean it is literally just a link to a pdf file? If so then
just check that the link is there on the page (using assert_select or
equivalent for whatever testing tools you are using). There is
nothing else to test.
