Can’t understand the point to it. “GUI automation” is a contradiction in 
terms, because a GUI is designed for use by humans to do manual tasks, not 
ones that can be automated.

Tasks that can be automated are most easily, flexibly, and above all 
reliably, done via command lines and other such scripting interfaces.
