Testing File Downloads

QA.tech’s agent can test file download functionality in your web applications. When a file download is triggered during a test, the agent will:

  1. Detect the download event
  2. Wait for the download to complete
  3. Verify the file was downloaded successfully
  4. Show a success message with the file details

To test file downloads just write the test like you normally would and the agent will handle the rest. For example Click the export button will automatically download the file and verify it was downloaded successfully.
