Initial Code

def create_photo(options = {}, image_filename = 'files/house1_exterior1.gif')
  photo = fixture_file_upload(image_filename, 'image/jpg')
  houses(:house1).house_photos.create({ :image => photo }.merge(options))

Initial Description

fixture_file_upload is another nifty Rails testing feature. It allows you to create "MIME-encoded content that would normally be uploaded by a browser input field." (Part in quotes straight from Agile Web Development with Rails, v2). Put your files to test in test/fixtures/files. You have to create the 'files' directory; rails doesn't do it for you.
