Ruby on Rails

I looked into : actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/testing/
test_process.rb

def fixture_file_upload(path, mime_type = nil, binary = false)
fixture_path = self.class.fixture_path if self.class.respond_to?
(:fixture_path)
Rack::Test::UploadedFile.new("#{fixture_path}#{path}",
mime_type, binary)
end

it's trying to get the fixturePath from self.class ( Article in this
case) which doesn't respond to fixture_path
however the correct path is given by
ActionController::TestCase.fixture_path

so using the trick:
photo { fixture_file_upload
"#{ActionController::TestCase.fixture_path}files/test.jpg", 'image/
jpg' }
runs well... but I guess it's just a trick, the 'truth' is somewhere
else ..... ?
how can I relate the fixture_path with the self.class

thanks for your feedback
