Hi Sean,

I've been playing around with using AppleScript and System Events to
write automated GUI acceptance tests.

I realise this isn't exactly what you want to do, but it might be a
decent alternative.

You might be interested in the second half of my Ruby Manor
presentation on "Ruby & Cocoa" [1] and/or the relevant code [2].

Cheers, James.
