Dear Monks,

I have been employed for some time testing software. I have been engaged the last few years in advocating using Perl to test our GUIs and other things, and have been very successful in spreading the Perl gospel. However, with our developers moving to c#/.Net, I have stumbled upon the juggernaut that Win32::GuiTest and others seem to not be able to slay.

I have done hours of searching.

Can I test .NET GUIs with Perl? (No, I don't want to do x,y clicks and screen images.) Any Win32::DotnetTest modules or the like available?

Please help! I may have to abandon my beloved Perl, and fork over good company money for some Microsquash proprietary software testing suite!
