I believe that as InMemoryUploadedFile is "InMemory", internally uses a cStringIO as the "container" for the file. So basically the class it's just a wrapper that returns the StringO object, a string representation of the file. You should check for the attributes of StringO or maybe use SimpleUploadedFile class, maybe that works.
