Question #152972 on Sikuli changed:

    Status: Open => Needs information

RaiMan requested for more information:
What kind of VW?

Host system, guest system?

Host and guest on same machine?

Is Sikuli working as expected on the guest system running scripts
manually? (Some people have problems with different combinations of
Host/VW/Guest)

Has the guest system full access to the screen, when test is running?

Generally a test is run by starting a Java VM running the Sikuli
environment, that processes the script. So to start a test, you must be
able to start java with some specific parameters from command line in
the guest system.

If host and guest are on the same machine, it is generally possible to
run the testscript on the host and the script works on the window of the
guest.

If the guest is remote, you have to use your favorite method to trigger
something (in this case the java run) on the remote machine.

You might use methods, that couple things tighter :
So you might implement the test script as an XML-RPC server on the guest, that can be triggered from anywhere over the net by any XML-RPC client (sounds complicated, but is very easy to implement).
