Also somewhat unrelated, but, my primary screen reader software, jaws, also
allows you to generate scripts to sort of invoke multi-activity macro's with
regards to operating system - so you could get it to click on a button,
enter text in a field, move cursors around, etc. etc., repeatedly, if you
wanted to - not really same as any form of bulk testing of software, etc.,
but, can interact with interfaces automatically, etc.

Stay well
