Django ModelAdmin allows you to define custom view in it. So move your view code to the ModelAdmin and override the get_urls() method:

class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):

    def get_urls(self):
        urls = super(MyModelAdmin, self).get_urls()
        my_urls = patterns('',
            (r'^test_view/$', self.admin_site.admin_view(self.test_view))
        )
        return my_urls + urls

    def test_view(self, request):
        form = TestForm(request.POST or None)
        ...

To use the admin layout in your test.html template extend it from admin/base_site.html:

{% extends "admin/base_site.html" %}

{% block title %}My test upload{% endblock %}

{% block content %}

    <form action="" method="post">
        {% csrf_token %}
        {{ form.as_p }}
        <input type="submit" value="Upload" />
    </form>

{% endblock %}
