I'm in touch with Mickael Scherer (Cc'd) who was there. Notes of the screenshot automation BoF were published. They are, well, minimal: https://wiki.gnome.org/GUADEC/2014/BOFs/ScreenshotAutomation/VrutkovsNotes https://etherpad.gnome.org/p/GUADEC2014ScreenshotAutomationBoF They use dogtail (https://fedorahosted.org/dogtail/), which itself "uses Accessibility (a11y) technologies to communicate with desktop applications". We've already considered doing this (instead of Sikuli). It has a least one downside (that's not exactly testing how most users interact with the software), and at least two upsides (it ensures accessibility technologies are properly supported, it's cheaper than Sikuli as one doesn't have to maintain pictures). They also use LDTP (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Desktop_Testing_Project). We've invested quite a lot into our current Sikuli/Cucumber testing infrastructure, but still, it would be good at some point to review how other tools have evolved, what other projects use, and what would be the blockers for us to transition.
