Trying to automate using the below code but not working
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
fileupoladbtn.sendKeys(System.getProperty("user.dir") +"/Images/zoom_out.jpg");
actions.dragAndDrop(fileupoladbtn, fileupoladbtn1);
what I could understand from your short described question , you need to interact with windows file upload which is not handled by selenium , you need to use auto it scrip and call that in your selenium script.you can download Auto it and SCiTE which is the editor.
below is the autoit file upload script -
Sleep(1000)
ControlFocus("Open","","Edit1")
Sleep(2000)
Send("{Enter}")
Sleep(1000)
Send("{Backspace}")
Sleep(1000)
Send($CmdLine[1])
Send("{Enter}")
Sleep(2)
ControlClick("Open","","Button1")
It will be saved when you go to tools and compile it in autoit editor, note the name from here.
once action to popup file upload is done, and Window handler to file upload is visible call above script.
for Java
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("E:\\AutoIT\\FileUpload.exe");
for Python
subprocess.Popen('C:\\Handle\\FileUpload.exe '+File_path, shell=True)

I have to automate a scenario like a upload an image from windows explorer to TinyMCE component using Selenium. Since Selenium does not support OS control, I used AutoIt to upload the image.
AutiIt sets the image path to "File name" and seems like it clicks on 'Open' button as well. But the image is not loading to my "source" field.
Here is my Selenium command:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:/XXXXX/src/test/resources/uploadImage.exe");
// Path of the AutoIT script file
AutoIT script:
WinActivate("Open")
Send("C:\LCNGProjects\Screenshots\Images\GifImage1.gif")
Sleep(5000)
Send("{ENTER}")
Refer the attached screenshot
Not sure if I have got the questions correct, Did you compile the script.
Can you please go through link below for script compilation and step by step info how to upload a file.

You do not need to use AutoIt. Auto will make your script dependable on windows machine only.
Instead of it find element using locator(i.e. xpath) of upload button which is having tag as type="file". Now pass this simple sendKeys with absolute path of your image in your machine like below:-
button2.sendKeys("C:\\UsersDesktop\\logo\\Summit-Logo-900px.png");
Or use
System.getProperty("user.dir"));
Append the path of file exluding your project path and filename inside your project
Example :-
button.sendKeys(System.getProperty("user.dir")+"\\logo\\Summit-Logo-900px.png");
below link contains more option to upload file like below :-
Using SendKeys command.
Using AutoIt scripting.
Using Jacob com interface.

Hope it will help you :)
I'm not going to add full source code here. You can call the AutoIT script using this command inside your test case.
// Call to AutoIT script to upload the image
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\xxxxx\\src\\test\\resources\\uploadImage.exe");
AutoIT Scrip
ControlFocus("Open","","Edit1")
ControlSetText("Open","","Edit1","C:\xxxx\Images\jpgImage")
ControlClick("Open","","Button1")

I have a scenario where in i need to upload a file using Selenium IDE version 2.9.0.
I tried using "Type" command with id of that element and path of that file as argument. But its not working.
Is there any other way to upload a file using IDE?
If there is no other way to upload using IDE, then what might be the issue? Please suggest
Try this:
getDriver().findElement(YourUploadButton).sendkeys(uploadFilepath);
Steps: open the Browser > enter URL http://seleniumhq.org >
Click Download tab > click Download version “2.46.0” link
It opens a dialog window. Click “Save File” button
Note: I have tried download *.xls file example code from URL: http://seleniumeasy.com/selenium-tutorials/how-to-download-a-file-with-webdriver it is working fine in my system. It automatically handling the dialog box and saving the file in destination location.
But the same code not working to download the *.jar file.
Could you please look into this one and help me to resolve this?
If you are downloading Selenium Standalone Server try this:
profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "application/java-archive");
If downloading selenium java webdriver:
profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "application/zip");

I have recorded some simple selenium tests by Selenium IDE. Now I want to run those tests in Jenkins.
Which plugin to Jenkins do I need to do that? And how to run the tests step by step? Help is appreciated.
you can use recorded selenium IDE script and selenium-server.jar file to run it from Jenkins
Here is steps:
Go to SeleniumHQ page and download Selenium Server file
Eg: selenium-server-standalone-2.33.0.jar
Repair html test suite Use Selenium IDE to record then save as
html test case and test suite then put them in a same folder
eg: TestCase.html, TestSuite.html
In jenkins
Plugin Seleniumhq
Configure Selenium runner file
Manage Jenkins > Configure System > Selenium Remote Control: htmlSuite Runner = path to file u have download in step 1
Configure Job to run
In Build field click " Add build step" then select "seleniumhq htmlSuite Run"
browser: *firefox or *iexploer ....
startURL: http://www.google.com or ...
suiteFile: Input absolutely path to TestSuite.html file saved in step 2
resultFile: Input absolutely path to a file that results will be saved
Hope this help!
I did the same but the following error occurred:
Unable to find the HTML runner. This is normally because you have not downloaded
or made available the 'selenium-leg-rc' jar on the CLASSPATH. Your test will
not be run.
Download the Selenium HTML Runner from http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/ and
use that in place of the selenium-server-standalone.jar for the simplest way of
running your HTML suite.
