Instance Method Details

#file_detector=(detector) ⇒ Object

Set the file detector to pass local files to a remote WebDriver.

The detector is an object that responds to #call, and when called will determine if the given string represents a file. If it does, the path to the file on the local file system should be returned, otherwise nil or false.

Example:

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

driver.find_element(:id => "upload").send_keys "/path/to/file"

By default, no file detection is performed.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)
