 ** There are a few such things on the market. The one I remember
was by a company called Atron (sp?), called the `Atron Evaluator'.
It gave you complete control of the test environment, comparing
screens and portions of screens, simulating both keystrokes and 
mouse moves and clicks. It wasn't perfect with the mouse, but it
was certainly adequate.
