Sikuli - Identify desktop application element attributes --- not planned

Asked by JP

Hello,

I have been using Sikuli for the last 4 years to replace some of our manual business processes and we have found it very helpful. I understand Sikuli utilizes the visual image match method for automation I do find this requires high maintenance with the images.

I have explored similar automation tool which they can identify web and desktop application element attributes like ID/XPath etc. I'm just wondering will Sikuli ever going this direction to include this feature?

Thanks

Jenny

Not planned. Sorry.

SikuliX is and will stay a WYSIWYS (What you see is what you script) tool.

Going into app or website internals is a completely different approach.

Image maintenance will surely get some improvements in the future.
