Maxq can't record uploading a file?

[Jack Brown]

I have a webpage where there is an upload button, you click the button then select the file to upload, then click ok and the file is uploaded from your harddisk to the server. It seems that maxq can't record this, when I click upload choose the file and click ok, maxq gives an error popup (but there is no error msg on the popup). Anyone know how I can get around this, or tell me what the post statement would look like,  I don't know enough about python to write the post statement myself. Thanks in advance.

I think you are right that maxq does not support upload.  I suspect that
getting file upload working, even when editing the script manually
rather than recording, would require changes to MaxQ itself (Java).

But I am only using maxq to record, not to run the script, I am running the script from eclipse. So if I could only figure out how to manually modify the script to send the file to the server, my problems would be solved. Any tips are appreciated!

Hi Jack and Oliver:

There is multipart mime support in the MaxQ code but I do not think  
it works. It's been a long time since I looked at the code base.

And now for a shameless plug, PushToTest Version 5 has a multipart  
mime handler and support for recording uploads using TestGen4Web.

Running the script still relies on MaxQ classes to concisely send
GET/POST requests and check results.  Of course you could write custom
Jython code to perform the upload manually, but I don't have any code on
hand that does this.
