I was more interested in a quick proof of concept. The flexibility of
autohotkey allows for lots of different methods for doing such things,
and a method that involves the majority of code being run under AHK
itself (and therefore on wine AND windows) is very possible with
careful planning, which is part of what makes this proposal so
interesting.
Hi Austin,
IMO it would be nice to make clear line between *installation* testing
and *functional* testing.
The first would answer the AppDB question if the program is installable
(and uninstallable).
The second could try to cover some basic aspects of program
functionality, say - Firefox is able to view http://winehq.org or so.
AutoHotkey even supports screenshots matching.
See *-repository/*/resources for some library of existing primitive
AutoHotkey install/uninstall scripts. There are some game demos too.

For example Wizardry 8 demo download is available here and should work:
http://wood.sandbox.cz/wizardry8-demo/wizardry8demo.exe
Heroes of Might and Magic III demo installs and runs well, too (beware
of troubles with PulseAudio).
From top of my head, Widelands and FreeCiv would be another nice
candidates for free downloadable games with easy automation.
Hope it helps.
