In mitmweb, the Download button seems to do the same job as Download the content of the flow button in the Response tab, which, despite its misleading name, saves only response body and is incompatible with the server-side replay feature. I did not find a way to save the entire flow as in mitmproxy, so I had to switch to the command-line tool in order to produce the file in compatible format. Is it possible to do the same from the web UI (mitmweb)?
If you click on "mitmproxy" at the top left and then "Save", you will get a dump file containing all flows.

I’m trying to use chrome devtools to see what network requests are.
But for some links, a new tab will be created for downloading a file and once the file is downloaded the tab is immediately closed.
There is no time to for me to inspect what the network requests are involved in the new tab. Is there a way to force the download in the original window so that I can still see the network activity?
As this answer suggest, yo may want to use chrome net export using chrome://net-export/
How it works?
You open a new tab and enter chrome://net-export/
Press the start logging to disk button and select a file
Do whatever
Press the stop recording button and inspect the file (should be formatted to be readable)
How to reproduce?
function popup() {
window.open('https://google.com', '_blank')
}
<button onclick="popup()">
click me
</button>
You will get WAY more information than you wished for, so - be patient when going over all the traffic details and also - make your recording as targeted and short as possible
Enjoy
EDIT
#Nathan raises a fair point in the comment - this method is not visual. a tool that may help to visualize the data is netlog viewer
Use the link, press the choose file button and upload your json file
In the left menu select events - this will display all events in a big table
Filter table by using URL_REQUEST or
Click each item to inspect and get detailed information (such as: url, headers, method, etc.)
There are other cool tools there (such as timeline) but it is different from chrome dev tools. This solution is just another set of tools for developers, that's all
Hi guys,
Is it possible to select a file from a dialog box when we are running a web test in Telerik Test Studio? The scenario of this execution is when we click a field in a web browser, a windows dialog box pops out and we would need to input a path to a local folder and select a file(SelectFile.PNG).
But I'm unable to detect any element from this dialog box presuming this is because the test script is a web test and hence this limitation(do correct me if i'm wrong).
Is there any workaround or suggestion to this limitation?
Many many thanks!
Best Regards,

Kind of a late response but if your recording is enabled, it should automatically record the step for a File Upload dialog box (and handle it appropriately when using play back).
Alternatively, you can manually add the "Dialogs->FileUpload" step, and fill in the properties appropriately.
I am trying to display results in a web page. I want to link this from the waterfall page of buildbot. But when I useclick , the required web page does not open. I have placed this new web page in the templates directory. Is there something more that needs to be done?
Since the results you want to display are produced by one of your builds,
the waterfall web templates are not relevant, since they are templates
for the whole waterfall, including all builds, whether or not they
are builds that produce these particular results.
If you wish to provide links to some files generated by a build, you select
a buildstep in the build, or create one for the purpose, that will provide
those links within its status box in the waterfall display (e.g. in the
way that a ShellCommand buildstep provides a link to its stdio log).
For example, you might just add a final step to the build with the description
Report or Publish.
You must write a customized BuildStep class to execute the step that you select
or create. Your customized BuildStep class must be derived from LoggingBuildStep,
or from a class, such as ShellCommand, that is already derived from LoggingBuildStep.
The necessary customization is to override the createSummary method with
your own implementation, and in that implementation call the addURL method to adds URL(s)
to the file(s) you want to publish to the buildstep's status box. You can add as
many URLs as you like. Here is an outline example:
class ReportingStep(ShellCommand):
...
command = ['upload','report',to','some','server']
...
def createSummary(self,log):
...
url = "url/to/the/report/on/the/server"
self.addURL("Report", url)
Now, when ReportingStep completes, its status box will contain
a link labelled Report to the report that the step has uploaded to the server.
Google "buildbot buildstep createSummary" for more leads.
What if my files are saved locally and for now I just want the user to have a link to download the zipped files?
From what I understand, the above customization will help provide an external url.
The user clicks a link that is served from your buildmaster. If your
build just saves these files locally, then they're saved on the buildslave.
So unless your buildslave is on the same machine as the buildmaster then the link has to be URL to an "external" file.
On the other hand, if your buildstep uploads the file to the buildmaster,
then the link can be a link to local file - local on the buildmaster, which
is serving the link.
If your buildslave is on the same machine as your buildmaster, then obviously
you don't need to do any uploading:
addURL("Report",file:///path/to/the/zipfile.zip)
But remember, if you want the content at these links to be persistent then
/path/to/the/zipfile.zip had better not be somewhere that gets clobbered
by every build.
I am using code first api for UI Automation.
I want to check whether file is downloaded or not on button click.
I am able to find the button and click is working fine .
i dont know how to check the file is downloaded or not.
I am new to this technology. sorry if it is a basic question.
Thanks in advance.
Coded UI does not have any built-in facility for checking that a download completed and actually downloaded a file. However, Coded UI tests can use the full facilities of the language they are written in plus the .Net libraries.
In the Coded UI test method, at the place where you expect the download to have been completed, add some code to check the properties of the file that should have been created. For example: its existence, its creation and/or modification date and time, its size. Use the normal file IO operations to perform the checks. Microsoft provide details on How to do basic file I/O in Visual C#.
After performing the checks it may be beneficial to delete the file, to reduce wasted disc space.
I have a perl script which when run from the command line generates a text file of data with a specific format for use by another application. The script also prints informational warning messages on stderr. I'm writing a web front end for this. In an ideal world when the user clicks 'submit' on the associated form, a page would be displayed in the browser containing the informational messages, and simultaneously a pop-up would appear allowing the user to save the text file of data to disk. I would like this to work on browsers without javascript enabled, so I think exactly what I want is probably not possible.
Some sites I have seen deal with this kind of thing by displaying the page with the informational messages, and a link to the file to be downloaded. This would seem to mean having to store the files and sorting out some sort of security so that another user cannot download your file (not that this is a big deal for the application in question).
I'm wondering if there is a more elegant way of dealing with this? e.g Is it possible to use multipart messages to somehow achieve returning both pieces of information in one go? Is it possible to pop-up a second window with the informational messages without using javascript? Apologies if these seem like basic questions - my programming knowledge is in the domain of DNA sequence manipulation algorithms rather than web page generation..
If (and only if) the data is quick and easy to generate, do it once for error messages and a second time for download. The link or button of the error-message page would regenerate the results and prompt for download.
This is a bit of a hack since you need to consider what to do if the underlying data changes before the user hits the download link. Be careful to set the header correctly for file download vs normal webpage, eg,
if($submit) {
print header(-type=>'application/octet-stream',
-Content_disposition=>'attachment; filename=foobar.dat');
Gen_Results();
}
To be honest, I'd just use a little javascript anyway since it's a pretty safe assumption now a days. Otherwise, use a "noscript" tag for some alternative.
