Description:

Purpose and Audience: For all those who are looking for automation of desktop applications like Skype, web applications built using Flash, Windows desktop apps, and educational platforms like Mypascoconnect, this talk will demonstrate automation using a unique combination of Python and Sikuli. The automation solution discussed in this talk can be used for simple web applications to complex telematics system testing and desktop-based process automation. The audience for this talk is professionals who propose, design, develop, and sell automation solutions. Mypascoconnect Description: All are familiar with Python-Selenium-based web app automation, but this solution cannot be applied for Flash object-based applications and also for simple desktop applications like Skype, desktop tools, and educational platforms like Mypascoconnect. To overcome this challenge in the automation of desktop and Flash object-based web apps, an automation solution is designed using Python and Sikuli. Python is used as the main automation script which would interface with the automation environment like serial ports, databases, networks, and Sikuli scripts. Sikuli is mainly used for image recognition and controlling desktop events. The Python and Sikuli framework is being used to demonstrate how an automation solution can be achieved from simple Skype automation to complex Telematics System Testing and educational platforms like Mypascoconnect.
