What is the best way to test method, handling HttpServletRequest object java

Question

i want to create unitest for upload file method, which accepts HttpServletRequest object . But i don't know how to create this object and pass in all the form data without executing servlet. Is there a way to do this?

I personally like httpUnit, another related question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/53532/unit-testing-servlets — Prasanna Talakanti, Nov 01 '11 at 13:32
can you describe more about your application. Is it client-server based application. — SilentBomb, Nov 01 '11 at 12:04
I'm actually try to avoid servlet testing, and test inner method. — Andrey, Nov 02 '11 at 05:37

Create a mock HttpServletRequest instance (using Mockito or another mocking library).

Edit: See also a related question. Actually, subclassing HttpServletRequest is a way as well.

I have always used Spring Framework's classes for this, but I do Spring Framework for everything.
