How to upload a file by transfering the file from the local machine to the remote web server using Selenium Grid

问题

File Upload with a Selenium Grid:

Code

import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.LocalFileDetector;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;

public class Main 
{
    
    public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException
    {
          DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();
          capabilities.setBrowserName("internet explorer");
    
          RemoteWebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://URL:4444/wd/hub"), capabilities);
          driver.setFileDetector(new LocalFileDetector());
          driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    
          driver.get("https://url.de/index.xhtml");
          driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='form:sdsupload']/span")).click();
        
          WebElement addFile = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@type='file']"));
          ((RemoteWebElement) addFile ).setFileDetector(new LocalFileDetector());
          addFile.sendKeys("C:\\daten\\test\\test2.xml");
    }
}

The file exists on the local node, but not on the remote node. If the file is on the remote node, it works great. The File exists on local node, but not on remote node: https://i.stack.imgur.com/f31Wb.png

I read this:

https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/en/remote_webdriver/remote_webdriver_client/
https://www.lambdatest.com/blog/how-to-download-upload-files-using-selenium-with-java/

How can I pass a file to the remote node?

Edit

The same Error with Firefox, IE and Edge Chromium

Firefox:

When I copy the file to the remote client it works great again :(

Debug: Debug with Firefox

回答1:

This error message...

Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.InvalidArgumentException: Attempting to upload file 'C:\daten\test2.xml' which does not exist.

...implies that the desired file doesn't exist on the client machine.

Local file detector

The Local File Detector allows the transfer of files from the client machine to the remote server. In case a test needs to upload a file to a web application, a remote WebDriver can automatically transfer the file from the local machine to the remote web server during runtime. This allows the file to be uploaded from the remote machine running the test. It is not enabled by default and can be enabled as follows:

Java:

driver.setFileDetector(new LocalFileDetector());

Python:

from selenium.webdriver.remote.file_detector import LocalFileDetector

driver.file_detector = LocalFileDetector()

C#:

var allowsDetection = this.driver as IAllowsFileDetection;
if (allowsDetection != null)
{
   allowsDetection.FileDetector = new LocalFileDetector();
}

Ruby:

@driver.file_detector = lambda do |args|
  # args => ["/path/to/file"]
  str = args.first.to_s
  str if File.exist?(str)
end

JavaScript:

var remote = require('selenium-webdriver/remote');
driver.setFileDetector(new remote.FileDetector);

Kotlin:

driver.fileDetector = LocalFileDetector()

This usecase

If you are running your tests on Selenium Grid then you need to let your remote driver know that the file that needs to be uploaded is residing on the local machine and not on remote machine. In those cases, to upload a file from the client machine to the remote server, WebDriver can automatically transfer the file from the local machine to the remote web server during runtime you can use the following code block:

WebElement addFile = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@type='file']"));
((RemoteWebElement)addFile).setFileDetector(new LocalFileDetector());
addFile.sendKeys("C:\\daten\\test2.xml");
