A Python 3 wrapper around Microsoft's UIAutomation API for automating and inspecting Windows desktop application GUIs. It supports controls in MFC, WinForms, WPF, Metro, Qt, and browser apps, and ships an automation.py script for traversing UI control trees.

Use cases

  • automate windows desktop app guis from python
  • inspect ui controls of a wpf or winforms application
  • write gui automation scripts for chrome or electron apps
  • click buttons and read text in a windows program programmatically
  • traverse the control tree of the active window
  • build rpa scripts for legacy windows software

When to avoid

  • you need cross-platform GUI automation (macOS/Linux)
  • you target Metro apps that run in the background on Windows 8/8.1
  • you need to automate apps without UIAutomation provider support
