Testing Java Web Start applications!!

MarkovChain has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Folks,

I have been tasked with testing a website that launches a Java Web Start application. I am supposed to navigate through the application and then execute a few test cases.

Now I am all good with the website navigation part; I could use LWP::Simple or WWW::Mechanize. But I am clueless about how to go about navigating and testing out the Java Web Start apps.

I did a search via PPM but could not come up with any modules that could potentially help me out.

Any ideas??

Thank You!!
