Testing will be done after you've done the other steps...

Post a message with the patch to the core list. The way to do it is 
explained in [1]

You should use a unified diff patch [2] made against trunk [3] or older 
(still supported) versions it applies to. The name usually includes the 
bug number and version: 5699_trunk.diff, 5699_4-3.diff, 5699_4-2.diff.

[4] and the other pages in that part of the site. Read core list, read 
dev list, etc..
Core developers are quite busy, so it happens quite often that patches 
are not immediately tested and eventually they move out of sight. After 
a week you can reply to your own RFC with "REMINDER" in the body of the 
message to move it up in the list again. If you provide a clear test 
case (or point to the test case in the bug tracker) it becomes more 
likely that people find the time to test it.
There are also "bug days" [5] where developers gather on IRC to fix as 
many bugs as possible.
