The accepted answer doesn't work for integration tests because the @request variable doesn't exist.

According to RailsGuides, you can pass headers to the helpers.

Rails <= 4:

test "blah" do
  get root_path, {}, {'HTTP_REFERER' => 'http://foo.com'}
  ...
end

Rails >= 5:

test "blah" do
  get root_path, params: { id: 12 }, headers: { "HTTP_REFERER" => "http://foo.com" }
  ...
end
