Graphical Linux applications can be tested and automated through accessibility-driven scripts. It is useful for developers who need regression tests that interact with real GUI controls.

GUI automation can click buttons, type text, and change application state. Run tests in isolated sessions when actions could affect user data or desktop settings.
