如何使用 Selenium RemoteWebDriver 删除下载的文件？

Question

I am writing a test to check that a file can be downloaded from a particular web page and I want it to be able to run both locally and remotely (ie on a node via Selenium grid). Before anyone links me to the 'do you really need to download the file?'article, I have already managed to download and check the file, I just need a way of deleting it after the test has completed. Just calling File.delete(); or similar will only work locally (as far as I'm aware) so I can't use that to delete the file from the node machine. I'm aware of the class org.openqa.selenium.io.TemporaryFileSystem however I can't find any instructions for how to use it.

Can anyone offer a better solution than 'just run a script on the node machine to delete the file'? Thanks!

Answer 1

You can make the download folder shared. \\youruser\\downloads after that you can pass this path to the File.Delete(); and it will delete the desired files.

This Worked for me

try 
{
if ((new File("Path")).delete()) {
                System.out.println("Pass");     
            } else {
                System.out.println("Failed");
            }

          } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
          }

   ----------simply use this code for delete file in any folder-------------------       
   File file = new File("C:\\Users\\Updoer\\Downloads\\Inspections.pdf"); 
   if(file.delete())
   System.out.println("file deleted");

Answer 4

The Below Code will sequentially delete all the files from folder

    File path = new File("Path of Folder");
    File[] files = path.listFiles();
    for (File file : files) {
        System.out.println("Deleted filename :"+ file.getName());
        file.delete();
    }
