Sikuli is a visual GUI automation tool that uses screenshot matching to find and interact with on-screen elements, originally developed as an MIT CSAIL research project. This repository hosts the legacy Sikuli X-1.0rc3 release, which is no longer supported and has been superseded by RaiMan/SikuliX1.

Use cases

  • automate desktop apps that have no scripting API
  • click buttons by matching screenshots
  • write GUI tests for legacy applications
  • automate repetitive tasks across any windowed app
  • script interactions with apps that resist UI automation

When to choose

  • you specifically need the historical Sikuli X-1.0rc3 codebase
  • you are studying the original research project

When to avoid

  • you want a maintained Sikuli version - use RaiMan/SikuliX1 instead
  • you need bug fixes or support - this repo is abandoned
  • you are starting a new GUI automation project
