Control windows or file explorer to upload files in protractor

问题

I am trying to upload files in my protractor E2E test. Googling a bit I ended up using robotJS. Unfortunately , the installation of robotJS is failing. Is there any other way to get my files uploaded.

Steps:

1. Click on upload button
2. File explorer opens.
3. Enter the path
4. click on upload.

I tried using FileDetector and below is the code:

let fileToUpload = 'testfolder';
let absolutePath = path.resolve(__dirname, fileToUpload);
await browser.setFileDetector(new remote.FileDetector());
$('input[type="file"]').sendKeys(absolutePath);

This doesn't really pass or search for the absolute path. What is missing here ?

回答1:

If you have folder e2e with 2 folders: folder tests containing your test and folder images containing testFile, try this:

const filePath = '../images/testFile';
const absolutePath = require('path').resolve(__dirname, filePath);
$('input[type="file"]').sendKeys(absolutePath);
