In the ubuntu-system-tests project we have recently added some autopilot helpers for doing exactly this using the right-edge task manager:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/ubuntu-system-tests/trunk/view/head:/ubuntu_system_tests/helpers/unity8/phone_stage.py

This helper allows tests to switch tasks and close them exactly as a user would do, example tests here:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/ubuntu-system-tests/trunk/view/head:/ubuntu_system_tests/tests/test_app_switcher.py

These helpers could be re-used for this task.

Title:
  unity8-autopilot is missing an emulator for app management

Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Currently there is no way in an autopilot test to request to the shell
  to close an application cleanly (i.e. in the same way that the user
  would close it).

  It would be useful to add an emulator allowing to perform such an
  action that could be imported by other tests, in the same spirit as
  the emulator already existing in the UITK to do things like bringing
  up a toolbar.
