Unable to cover System.Today() in a test class

Hi,

I have a trigger that uses system.today() in multiple if statements. 

I am having difficuly trying to cover this in my test class. One of the statements checks if the current month is either July or August. As im currently testing this in January, it will not be covered.

What is the best way to dynamically cover this scenario?

Thanks,

Trigger (Currnent month is Janurary) 
if(System.today().Month() == 7 || System.today().Month() == 8){

}

@TestVisible private Integer currentMonth = System.today().Month();

in test 
yourClass.currentMonth = 7;

Maybe it helps you.
