I too would suggest trying attaches_file. I use it in a few different
stories I have, and it works fine for me. I don't believe I'm doing
anything nonstandard. Here's the basics of what one of mine looks like
(stripped out some fills_in's, etc. to declutter the example):
When "create a new hotel with photo from a '$source'" do |source|
visits new_location_path
fills_in 'Name', :with => 'Maui'
attaches_file 'location_photo', File.join(Rails.root, 'stories',
'fixtures', 'BigPizza.jpg')
clicks_button 'Save'
end
