Overview

File upload steps let your tests upload files — such as PDFs, images, and documents — to file inputs on a page. You can add upload steps manually in Edit Mode or capture them automatically while recording with the Chrome extension.

Recording File Uploads

When recording with the Chrome extension, file uploads are captured automatically:
  • File picker uploads and drag-and-drop uploads are both detected and recorded.
  • The uploaded files are saved with the recording and appear as a step in the generated test.
There is a 50 MB per-file size limit when uploading files during a recording.

Editing File Upload Steps

After creating a file upload step, you can modify it in Edit Mode:
  • Change the description — Update the step description to target a different file input.
  • Remove files — Click the X on a file chip to remove it from the step.
  • Add more files — Click Add files to attach additional files.
  • Download files — Download previously uploaded files to review them.
Upload steps cannot be added or modified via AI-based editing. Use Edit Mode to create and update file upload steps.

Supported File Types

Any file type is accepted. Common examples include:
  • PDF documents
  • Images (JPG, PNG, GIF, SVG, etc.)
  • Word documents (DOCX)
  • Spreadsheets (CSV, XLSX)
  • Plain text files (TXT)

Test Results

After a test runs, you can view the file upload step in the test results. The results show which files were uploaded and their sizes, so you can confirm the correct files were used.
