How To Upload Image With Angular Components Using Python Selenium

My automation script needs to upload an image to the webpage but I can't seem to upload the image using the normal send_keys method. I suspect it has something to do with the Angul

Solution 1:

To handle windows object you can use autoit However there is Python binding for AutoItX3.dll

You need to install PyAutoIt using pip.

pip install -U pyautoit

You need to import autoit on your python scripts.

import autoit

Click on the chose file button first.

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[@type='button'][contains(.,'Choose file')]").click()

Then add the following code with the relevant file path

filepath="C:\\filelocation\\filename.jpg"
autoit.win_wait_active("File Upload",5)
if autoit.win_exists("File Upload"):
   autoit.control_send("File Upload","Edit1",filepath+"{ENTER}")
