Copying to a test database

I am setting up some test databases and my users have asked me to move all the data from production. Someone told me that you could simply copy the Oracle files to the test instance, but they didn't know the specifics of how this was accomplished. Has anyone done this? What are the restrictions - must I copy the entire instance, or is there a way to do a datafile at a time?
