    Hi Randal, 

     

    Your trial gives full access in terms of functionality. 

     

    in terms of the recognition of controls; 

     

    That's due to it working with these controls out of the box when you record. 

     

    This are logged as "Click Events" in your script automatically. 


    Then, we interact with various web based controls using a mix set of

     

    xpath/optimized xpath/css selectors/dom path and if necessary co ordinates

     

    On playback loadninja will determine what to use on any control in your app leveraging AI. 

     

    You can explicitly override what AI recommends if you want in your playback settings if you would prefer. 

     

    That's why I said its out of the box. 

     

    If you want append the script post recording, check out this document

    Unable to find any documentation on programming the robot to select items from a drop-down list or radio button. Also I am using a trial version and I do not see any option to append a file upload manually according to the documentation. The only options I am given are in the image below.
