Support Selenium

[cburgmer]

A feature request. Hope this makes sense.

We use moxie as fallback under IE8/9. Because of the nature of the fallback, we feel we cannot adequately support the implementation with unit tests and would like to run our Selenium-Suite against an instance of IE9 too.

It now seems that uploading a file through the Flash overlay is not easily doable. Would it be possible to provide a simple entry point into the Flash runtime to fake a file upload?

What I'd envision is

fileInput.fakeUpload("fileName", "data:image/png;base64,theFilesContentAsBase64");

I'd look into this myself, but due to the needed bridge into Flash have to pass.

You can check how we unit test it here. Does it help, or you need something different?

Thanks a lot. I did not know I could provide my own File with the Flash runtime. Here's my code, might it help others with their testing:

window.mockFileUpload = function (fileName, fileType, content) {
                        var file;

                        fileName = fileName || 'test.svg';
                        fileType = fileType || 'image/svg+xml';
                        content = '<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"></svg>';

                        file = new window.mOxie.File(null, {
                            name: fileName,
                            type: fileType,
                            size: content.length,
                            data: content
                        });

                        window.myProductionCodeUploadHandler(file);
                    };
