I have had success in the past using "demo" scripting software that takes a
pre-built list of commands (with keystrokes, mouse moves, and timing), and
runs it against an application, and scheduled the running of that demo
software using cf.

and in a few cases, I used cf to manipulate the demo script before running
(to change inputs like dates)

I don't have access from here to any of my old projects, so have no
specifics available at the moment.
