Selenium RC > how to upload file using attachFile()

Question

I am using Selenium RC with Junit framework. I am trying to upload a file using attachFile() method.

attachFile: (Information collected from selenium API http:/         


        

Answer 1

Using Selenium / Rspec / Internet Explorer My solution was to create an AutoIt script on my windows machine

WinWaitActive("Choose File to Upload")
Send("c:\tests\school.jpg")
Send("{ENTER}")
run("selectfile2.exe")

Then run this as an administrator on the windows machine. Right-click on the exe file and run as admin.

Then rspec does a page.click "id of your browse button". When the Browse Window opens on the windows machine, AutoIt autofills the text box and it closes. Hopes this helps someone because this was driving me nuts.
