Pantomime is an end-to-end GUI testing framework that lets users write tests in plain natural language for desktop UIs without a DOM. It uses Windows UI Automation, OpenCV, OCR, and a reasoning model to perceive and interact with the screen, making it a novel approach to testing traditional desktop applications.

Target audience: backend devs, QA engineers, desktop app devs
