[Bug] Upload with HTML file input does not work in Chrome 73

[abramenal]

Current behavior:

File upload does not gets triggered when using Chrome v73 and higher.
There were no info in Chrome changelog:
https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2019/03/nic73

UPD:
Found related Chromium bug which seems to be fixed in corresponding Chrome release:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=792336

Code snippets:

Electron 59: el.files = [testFile] trigger change on input
Chrome >69: el.files = [testFile] trigger change on input
Chrome 73: el.files = [testFile] not trigger change on input

This issue is fixed in #29.

Linked issue: cypress-io/cypress#3730

Desired behavior:

File upload should work seamlessly on any platform.

Versions

Chrome: >73

The issue is fixed, but I'll keep this issue open for a while in order to receive some feedback if it's still persist for some other browsers.

hey guys, thanks for all your help! idk why mine's not working on Chrome 73, it used to work :(

const UPLOAD_DOCS = 'uploadDocs'; Cypress.Commands.add(UPLOAD_DOCS, () => { cy.fixture('license.jpg', 'base64').then((fileContent) => { cy.get('.front-image > .image-upload > p').upload( { fileContent, fileName: 'license.png', mimeType: 'image/jpg' }, { subjectType: 'drag-n-drop' } ); cy.get('.front-image > .image-upload > p').contains('license.png'); });

i have my cypress-file-upload @3.0.4 and Cypress 3.2.0

Tried to follow the code not sure where to put cy.wrap(subject).trigger('change', {force: true}),
Thanks!

Hey - would also really like the option to force this change because our inputs are often not visible (e.g. when using a label element to handle the clicks etc.)
