Description: This command is used with file upload widget (Defined by a locator with an XPath that has input tag with type = “file”) to upload a file included in the file field.
Usage Scenario: Supposed we want to upload an image as a logo to the first community that appears on our Reference app.

Procedure: Define a locator for the “Choose File” button using an XPath that directs to the input tag. The HTML tag for the input tag is

<input ng-show="ctrl.check() == 1" type="file" accept="image/*" file-model="avatar" class="">

and the XPath is

(//text()[contains(.,'Upload')]/ancestor::div/descendant::input)[1]

Once finished, upload a file to Subject7 and select it from File in your command options. Your step will look like this:
