[Joseph Nahmias <joe@nahmias.net>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : ldtp

  Description     : GNU/Linux Desktop Testing framework

GNU/Linux Desktop Testing Project (GNU/LDTP) is aimed at producing high
quality test automation framework and cutting-edge tools that can be
used to test GNU/Linux Desktop and improve it. It uses the
"Accessibility" libraries to poke through the application's user
interface. The framework has tools to generate "AppMap" by reading
through the user interface components of an application. The framework
also has tools to record test-cases based on user-selection on the
application.

GNU/LDTP core framework uses "AppMap" and the recorded "test-cases" to
test an application and gives the status of each test-case as output. 

I would be willing to sponsor an NM if they want to package / maintain
this.  Otherwise, I'll probably do this myself sooner or later.
