Hi. We are currently testing in different Virtual Machines, what we do is change the 'FileUploadPath' for each virtual machine. I just want to ask how do I create a FileUpload (Coded) step with Dynamic path so that we don't need to change the path every time we do a test on other machines. I'm looking forward to your answers. Thank you very much! :)

Assuming it is somewhere fairly common, you could use environment variables to come up with a path to the files...?
What are some of the paths as examples? Do they share anything in common?
You could use the following information to come up with a solution (it looks like this uses the 'System' namespace, so you shouldn't have to include anything extra either):

As an addition to my last post, you could also create environment variables on your VM's that have the same name, and then use them same solution I mentioned. This is in case the paths on the different machines don't share anything in common, or if there isn't an existing environment variable that would suit to your current path.
