I have a PR that adds a file CRM/Upgrade/Incremental/sql/4.7.alpha1.mysql.tpl. How should I go about testing this code?

Note that the more common case is to be inserting upgarde code into a file like this. In both cases the important thing is to test the upgrade code works properly. JMA has found that it is useful to test db upgrade code against a variety of dbs that have been found in the wild, as well as the tests that automatically check upgrades on the default db.– Joe Murray ♦Apr 7, 2015 at 2:09

If you have installed civicrm-buildkit and configured civibuild, then you can use the tutorial steps at Daily Coding: Upgrade Tests.
If you don't use civibuild, then you can piece-together a similar workflow using civicrm-upgrade-test.
For more discussion about writing upgrade logic, see Upgrade Reference on the wiki.
For a general, high-level overview of automated tests (including upgrade tests), see Testing on the wiki.
