Extracting file name from the file path in C#?

Question

I've seen a couple similar questions but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I have a list box where I want all selected test files to be listed without the whole path. With this current code, no text is being entered into the list box. Where am I going wrong?

if (cmdBrowse.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
    string testNameShort = Path.GetFileName(listboxTestsToRun.Text.ToString());
    listboxTestsToRun.Items.Add(testNameShort);
}

Thanks in advance!

Supposing that cmdBrowse is an OpenFileDialog and you want the filename selected by your user to be added to the listbox. In this case you code this

if (cmdBrowse.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
   if(cmdBrowse.FileName.Length > 0)
   {
      string testNameShort = Path.GetFileName(cmdBrowse.FileName);
      listboxTestsToRun.Items.Add(testNameShort);
   }
}
