X11::GUITest

X11::GUITest is the original Perl GUI automation toolkit for X11.

This project is now maintained as a legacy project. Its successor is pyguitest, a Python-based GUI automation framework that continues the goals and functionality of X11::GUITest while extending support to modern Linux desktop environments, including X11, XWayland, and Wayland.

For new projects, please use pyguitest.
