If anyone is looking to automate gui tests ( similar to scripts/runtests),
I found library 'pyautogui' to be very interesting.
It can generate key stokes ( alt ctrl shift combos too)
It can generate mouse movement in the gui.
It can _find_ buttons and click them.
It helped me send keystrokes to my xfce4-terminal to clear it...
pyautogui.hotkey('alt', 't') ; pyautogui.typewrite([ 'c'])
