How to upload a file in a Rails Rspec request spec

Question

I want to test uploading a file in a Rails Rspec request test. I\'m using Paperclip for asset storage.

I\'ve tried:

path = \'path/to/fixture_file\'
para         


        

Answer 1

Might be useful for other users: I got this problem because I mistakenly used a get instead of a post request in my specs.
