Question #190039 on Sikuli changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/190039

    Status: Open => Answered

RaiMan proposed the following answer:
Sikuli internally uses the Java.awt.Robot class, to get access to the
screen and this in turn needs access to a physical screen (which might
be available in some virtualization environments).

But Sikuli currently has no feature, to run in headless situations.

The mentioned "other question" was finally solved by giving the Hudson
processes  access to the physical screen by some administrative options.

So as long, as a Sikuli script is running in the respective environment
from command line, it should be possible to run it from a CI as some
subprocess as long as the needed environment is available.
