    Hi koen_able,

     

    In my opinion, perhaps you are using relative path and the path is incorrect.

     

    There are 2 options:

    1. Hard "your path file" by clicking browse in data source step and relocate your data file.

    Full path like this: "C:\software-vm3\ep-test-automation\resources\test_data\banksparen-chain\qanda.banksparen-chain.xlsx"

     

    2. Relative path like this: "${projectDir}\ep-test-automation\resources\test_data\banksparen-chain\qanda.banksparen-chain.xlsx"

     

    Hope this help.

Hi bktientu,

 

Thanks. I had tried the first option of course, but it still said it couldnt find the file.

The second option worked. Unfortunately, I dont know what the problem was with the other options, but it works now
