FileUploadDialog on locked screen???

[Martin]

Hi

I'm trying to make a test which uploads some files, is this possible on a locked screen??, below is my code, the idea is to give a count of how many times the image should be uploaded and it works fine but then if i lock the screen it just hangs and doesn't seem to ever timeout with an error.

So question:
Can this be done on locked screen?

Possible bug report:
The file upload doesn't seem to ever timeout when it fails, instead it seem to just stop.




            currentTest.ActiveBrowser.Manager.DialogMonitor.Start();

            for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
            {
                FileUploadDialog fileUp = new FileUploadDialog(currentTest.ActiveBrowser, imagePath, DialogButton.OPEN);
                currentTest.ActiveBrowser.Manager.DialogMonitor.AddDialog(fileUp);
                currentTest.ActiveBrowser.Find.ByExpression<HtmlInputFile>(attachFileInput).Click();
                fileUp.WaitUntilHandled(SharedValues.DefaultTimeout);
                currentTest.ActiveBrowser.Manager.DialogMonitor.RemoveDialog(fileUp);
            }

            currentTest.ActiveBrowser.Manager.DialogMonitor.Stop();

Hello Martin,

No. dialog handling cannot take place on a locked screen. There is no "desktop" to attach to and the dialog monitor cannot initialize. Beyond that, certain actions within the dialog handling require simulated key presses which fail on a locked screen as well.

See here and here for more information and possible work-arounds.

Kind regards,
