Looks like indeed the right tool for the job, given I'm replying on this 
a bit late, has there any efforts made already in combining for example 
[1] with something like dogtail? I couldn't find anywhere on the wiki 
were it was defined exactly what kind of test each desktop product 
should pass to certify as "TESTED" but we can most probably just program 
upstream's test suites per each product using dogtail to start an 
automatic desktop testing machine.
