Hi everyone,
I’m currently a junior web developer building a small client portal, and I want to ensure the site shows a clear "Error" icon if a user tries to upload a broken document.
I actually need to corrupt my file manually so I can test the logic of my JavaScript validation under "worst-case" scenarios. I want to make sure the server doesn't crash if someone accidentally tries to upload a half-downloaded or broken JPEG from their phone.
Does anyone know a safe and quick way to corrupt my file?
Thanks in advance.
