Is xk6 extension required with k6 0.52 version?

Grafana k6 k6-browser

I was trying to upload csv using setInputFiles command but getting a type error as Execution completed
Code:
const fileInput = import page.$(“locator”);
fileInput.setInputFiles(‘path of file’);
Output:
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Object has no member ‘setInputFiles’

I am using k6 version 0.52.

Hi @ankushakhotele1,

Please see this migration document. You need to use await in front of $ and setInputFiles.

Hope this helps.

I am also facing to Upload file, with doing performance testing using k6. Why cannot we use Playwright
await page.getByLabel(‘Upload file’).setInputFiles(path.join(__dirname, ‘myfile.pdf’));
or
await page.locator(“//input[@type=‘file’]”).setInputFiles(“C:/K6-Perform/sample-csv.csv”);
This line is giving me : Object has no member ‘setInputFiles’.
to upload a path with locator.
Playwright and Selenium works like that.

It’s because Locator doesn’t have a setInputFiles method (however, Page, Frame, ElementHandle do—so you can also use the method on these objects). Please submit a new issue on our Github so that we can add this feature. Thanks!

@inancgumus : actually there is an issue for it already: locator.setInputFiles(files[, options]) · Issue #355 · grafana/xk6-browser · GitHub
