Done, see blueprint. In short: it could very well be that moving to behave + dogtail would give us quite some benefits. But, the initial work would take a while:

  • have behave in Debian
  • add image detection support to dogtail, or check that behave and dogtail work fine in Jython (so we can keep using Sikuli, which would make the next step cheaper)
  • convert our existing tests to behave + Python + some dogtail, and maybe some Sikuli on top
