Are you sure it's a problem with nightwatch? Seems like your file is not found: File not found : /home/docker/app/test.pdf

[Michelle-Bettencourt]

Yes I do because the file is in that spot

I added this to the beginning

let path = require('path').resolve(__dirname + '/../../../test.pdf')
console.log('** test: ', fs.existsSync(path))

and got
`
Running: File Upload

** test: true
`

Is it an issue if i am hosting it on a different port?
