First thing compiler will not allow you to save the class.

there are some syntax errors
List<String> strConIds is type "string" but in the for loop you are using "ID".

for(Id conId:strConIds)  it should be for(string conId:strConIds){

In the Test Class you are not providing any values ContactIds which is actually a null.
Just give any string dummy contact ids to the "ContactIds"

I think this should work


Let me know if you have any problem.

Thanks,

     List<String> strConIds= ContactIds.split(',');
            for(string conId:strConIds){
                Attachment a = new Attachment(parentId =conId,name=myfile.name, body = myfile.body);
                insert a
these lines are not covering please any help;

before calling the Savedoc method. add the 

ContactIds = con.id;

and always use list when you make any DML statement or you may runout the governor limits.


let me know if you have any issues

you are missing some  manadatory fields. 

when you wrire test class or inserting any records without having mandatory fields it will through that message error message.

use something like this or refer to those links


    Blob b = Blob.valueOf('Test Data');  
      
    Attachment attachment = new Attachment();  
    attachment.ParentId = parentId;  
    attachment.Name = 'Test Attachment for Parent';  
    attachment.Body = b;
