I'm curious what other users use for automating Windows & widgets with Python (on Windows platforms that is). By automating- I mean clicking buttons and activating check boxes, menus, maximizing/minimizing Windows, sending keystrokes, etc.
>From what I've seen packages/frameworks like this are pretty scarce for Python. PyWinAuto was the only package that looked worthwhile using, but the documentation drove me crazy. I've opted for AutoIt3 which is a superb automation package, is mostly C-like, is open source, very popular, actively supported and extremely full-featured. I'd rather do it through Python if possible. AutoIt3 has COM support but only a measly subset is supported via COM. (I try to stay as far away from COM as possible, though even it it means I can use Python.I've had too many COM servers crash before a call returned, leaving the client hung) Thanks
