Allow for application independent mouse movement, clicks and keyboard input #199
Comments
I might do a PR of this on my own, but I'm currently swamped... |
As another thought: Maybe giving access to the FlaUI library directly would make it unnecessary to add additional keywords for this. Maybe could be done by providing an instance of certain classes to the user and via usage of Evaluate or something similar. |
You could Simply implement a new Keyword: If you dont give to "Press Key" keyword any indicator it will make a global key press.

FlaUI supports moving the mouse and just sending mouse inputs, without necessity of locators.
While this may be a rare use-case when testing applications, it would still be nice to have additional keywords, which would allow for the usage of the mouse via coordinates.
The same goes for keyboard inputs.
It does make testing more cumbersome and "flaky" when sending inputs without identifiers, however, I believe, that sometimes a user of this library might just want to use it as an automation method, rather than a testing method.
Having keywords to support that, would make this library a little more generic and also allow for user-input simulation without necessity of attaching an application.
