QuizMedium-HardPython onlyAsked in: Accenture, Capgemini, Infosys, TCS
The test runs with webdriver.Remote against Selenium Grid and sends a local file path to a file input. What happens?
- It works: webdriver.Remote uses a LocalFileDetector by default, so the file is sent to the node
- It fails until you copy the file to every node by hand
- Uploads are impossible on Grid
- You must click the input and type the path into the dialog
