Abstract
An automation application is described herein. The automation application executes on a computing device and accesses a macro for a target application. The macro has been generated based upon a sequence of inputs from a user received by the target application that causes the target application to perform an action, screen states of the target application as the target application receives the sequence of inputs from the user, operating system processes that are performed by an operating system as the target application receive the sequence of inputs from the user, and evidence events representing information obtained from the operating system processes. The automation application executes the macro, wherein executing the macro causes the automation application to mimic the sequence of inputs to the target application, thereby causing the target application to perform the action.
