Test File Upload Functionality

Test your web app’s file upload functionality on BrowserStack Automate.

Introduction

This document guides you on how to test your web app’s File Upload functionality in Automate by:

Uploading files from your machine
Uploading pre-loaded files
Uploading files that are downloaded in the same automate session

Supported Browsers and Operating Systems

Component	List
Supported OS	All desktop and mobile OS
Supported Browser	All (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE, Edge)

Uploading files from your machine

You can send a file to remote browsers—directly from your workstation—in Automate, through the LocalFileDetector method.

Note: Ensure to upload the file from your machine to BrowserStack remote machine’s /data/local/tmp/<file_name> directory only, and then upload file from BrowserStack remote machine’s /data/local/tmp/<file_name> directory to the web application.

In the above code snippet, the pushFile() method is used to upload file from your machine to BrowserStack remote machine, the method accepts remote_machine_file_path and local_machine_file_path as arguments respectively. The code then navigates to the URL where file has to be uploaded and through the send_keys() method, upload the file which is present in remote_machine_file_path.

Uploading file in iOS device is possible by downloading that file first and then uploading it in the same automate session. For more details, refer the section for uploading the files which are downloaded in the same Automate session.

Note: You can upload any file format from your local system by simply giving the path to that file.

Uploading pre-loaded files

By default, desktop and mobile platforms have some sample media files. This is also true for remote instances spun up on BrowserStack. Following are the file paths you can use:

Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7

In the below remote file paths there are two \, the first \ is used as an escape character

Uploading preloaded files in Android is not possible as of now, however you can upload the file from your machine to the web application using the pushFile() method as shown in Uploading files from your machine section

Uploading preloaded files in iOS can be implemented using the following iOS snippets.

You can use those files to test your web app’s file upload functionality using Selenium’s LocalFileDetector method and the file path.

Uploading the files which are downloaded from the web in the same Automate session

To do this, you’ll need the download file path. The file will be downloaded in these locations on the remote desktops:

C:\Documents and Settings\hello\Downloads

C:\Users\hello\Downloads

/Users/test1/Downloads

Uploading files that are downloaded in the same automate session is not possible in Android devices as of now, however you can upload the file from your machine to the web application using the pushFile() method as shown in Uploading files from your machine section

Uploading files that are downloaded in the same automate session can be implemented on iOS devices using the following iOS snippets.

Through your test script, you can instruct the remote browsers to:

Navigate to a URL.
Download a specific file.
Then upload the file to the web app under test using LocalFileDetector or pushFile and sendkeys method.
