Try reading KB 878449. It will outline the steps necessary to move your data to another server and you can do a test upgrade there. If it purely test jsut follow the steps to copy the data. That will give you enough to perform the upgrade.

I don't know how familiar you are with GP, but here's what I would do

Find a server

Install windows

install sql

restore a copy of your databases including dynamics

copy your users from your production server to your test server (search google)

install GP 2013 (install SP1 also)

launch GP utilities, let it upgrade your companies

If it were me, I'd just set up your test server with a copy of your production data, then install GP and go through the upgrade procedure.
