Unable to Upload Photos

[akashtippa123]

i tried to upload photos with this code

it('upload', function() { const yourFixturePath = 'cypress\fixtures\hd4.jpg'; cy.get('.upload-button').attachFile(yourFixturePath); }

it is not working with the above code, I tried an alternative way

cy.fixture('hd4').then((fileContent) => { cy.get('.upload-button').attachFile({ fileContent: fileContent.toString(), fileName: 'hd4', mimeType: 'image/jpg' }) })

if I try this above code, but the file is present in the cypress\fixtures\hd4.jpg I received this error please advise if anything wrong

@akashtippa123 did you try to use the path without cypress/fixtures prefix? I think cypress automatically uses this path so you should provide just file name:

it('upload', function() {
  const yourFixturePath = 'hd4.jpg';
  cy.get('.upload-button').attachFile(yourFixturePath);
}

[akashtippa123]

yes I tried without the cypress/fixtures prefix, it is not working

I also have the same problem, only it's not giving me any errors. Does anyone have a fix for this? Two weeks when I tried it, it was working.

It accepts the filename of a file placed in fixtures folder that you want to upload. So in case you have your test.png file put into cypress/fixtures, what you should provide into the command is just test.png.

[mariuspatrick]

I added the .jpg in the fixtures folder. Then I assign it to a const in my test file, after which I call the .attachFile(variableName)

For some reason, it's not adding the file to the website

@mariuspatrick is there any error log in console or cypress ui? Which setup you're using (framework, library for file uploader, library version, etc.)?

[mariuspatrick]

I am using the latest file-uploader version, 4.1.1

There is no error in the cypress ui. The test passes as long as I don't make any assertions to check whether the image is on page, which is strange

The problem was I was using a cypress recorder and it was selecting the button div, but I needed the input field to upload the file. I used inspect element to find the input field, I selected it and it worked.

I also inspected input field, and trying to upload image it's not uploaded for me, I didn't given any error

@mariuspatrick please help me how did you resolve this issue, I am also trying to resolve this from long day

[mariuspatrick]

I will try to explain this in detail, not sure if it will help solve your issue as well

First, I inspected the button element using inspect element in chrome dev tools. My button was inside a div, composed of 2 other elements. One of them was another div and the 2nd element was the actual input data element. I just had to use the 2nd element's selector, which was the input data element, and then it worked.

[akashtippa123]

is your input data element is disabled or enabled? my file upload is like this(input data field is disabled)

[MohmedEmad]

@akashtippa123 it's fixed with me by selecting the right input selector from the page, that is it

Thanks @mariuspatrick for your last comment
