The HasFile method for FileUpload is returning false incorrectly

The issue I am facing is with the ASP control FileUpload, which always returns false for the method FileUpload.HasFile. Even after trying to implement a trigger, the problem persists.

Below is the function associated with the button:

protected void btnUploadFile_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  testMethod();
}

The testMethod() mentioned below is encountering a situation where the if statement consistently evaluates to false.

protected void testMethod()
{
  if(FileUploadImage.HasFile)
  {
    ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, this.GetType(), "NoDatabaseAlertMessage", "alert('it work')", true);
  }
  else
  {
    ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, this.GetType(), "NoDatabaseAlertMessage", "alert('no work')", true);
  }
}

Edit1: The HTML trigger configuration that was attempted but unsuccessful:

<div>
  <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server"></asp:ScriptManager>

  <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" UpdateMode="Always" runat="server">
    <Triggers>
      <asp:PostBackTrigger ControlID="btnUploadFile" />
    </Triggers>
  </asp:UpdatePanel>

  <asp:FileUpload ID="FileUploadImage" runat="server" />

  <asp:Button ID="btnUploadFile" runat="server" Text="Upload File" class="btn btn-primary transition-3d-hover" OnClick="btnUploadFile_Clicked" />

</div>

While reviewing the code, I discovered that a team member had made a mistake in the .aspx file by forgetting to close a form tag. Once I closed the form tag, the problems were resolved and the control started functioning properly.
