    I can suggest using the java.awt.Robot class

     String text = "Hello world"; Robot robot = new Robot(); for (int n = 0; n < text.length(); n++) { int keyEvent = KeyEvent.getExtendedKeyCodeForChar(text.charAt(n)); robot.keyPress(keyEvent); robot.keyRelease(keyEvent); robot.delay(1000); } robot.waitForIdle(); Rectangle rectangle = new Rectangle(new Dimension(1000, 1000)); BufferedImage printScreen = robot.createScreenCapture(rectangle); File outputFile = new File("screenShot.jpg"); ImageIO.write(printScreen, "jpg", outputFile);

    This example prints text and takes a screenshot. With this class, you can change the position of the cursor, emulate a click with a mouse and keyboard.

    Another option is to use the event queue directly. Independently adding your own event'ы it is possible to emit user actions:

    java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemEventQueue().postEvent(customEvent);

      You can use the library Fest .

      This library will be able to connect to the tested application, run it. It can choose values ​​from the combo box, check whether the checkbox is selected, press buttons, enter text, pick up text and more.

      It is designed for ui тестирование swing applications.
