Why MetaDesign

Hire SikuliX developers for visual GUI testing.

Image recognition, legacy systems, desktop apps — visual testing done right.

01

Image-Based Automation

Image-based automation with OpenCV-powered visual recognition — automate any UI that can be seen on screen, regardless of underlying technology.

02

Legacy System Expert

Perfect for mainframe terminals, thick clients, and legacy apps without accessible DOM — the only way to automate the unautomatable.

03

Cross-Platform

Same SikuliX scripts run on Windows, macOS, and Linux — true cross-platform desktop automation.

Desktop App Testing

Desktop application testing to automate Windows, macOS, and Linux apps using visual recognition.

Legacy Systems

Desktop application testing for mainframe terminals, thick clients, and apps without DOM access.

RPA Workflows

Automate repetitive desktop workflows — data entry, form filling, and screen navigation.

Visual Validation

Verify UI elements, icons, and visual states through image comparison.

Our approach

Five stages, paired end-to-end.

Predictable delivery. No black-box sprints.

01

Analyse

Identify visual elements, capture reference images, define test flows.

02

Script

SikuliX Jython/JRuby scripts with robust image matching patterns.

03

Stabilise

Tolerance tuning, region targeting, and wait strategies for reliability.

04

Integrate

CI/CD pipeline with headless execution and screenshot reporting.

05

Maintain

Image template updates and script maintenance as UI evolves.

Customer value

Six places it pays back in the first sprint.

Real outcomes our clients report within the first engagement cycle.

Faster time-to-market

Production-ready teams that ship from week one — no ramp-up lag.

Reduced technical risk

Architecture reviews, code audits, and security scans baked into every sprint.

Measurable velocity

Cycle time, PR throughput, and defect density tracked from day one.

Cost predictability

Fixed-price or capped T&M — no surprise invoices, ever.

Continuous improvement

Retros, post-mortems, and process refinement every sprint.

Knowledge transfer

Your team grows. Documentation, pair programming, and workshops included.

Technology

Tools our sikulix automation developers ship with.

We use what works. No vendor lock-in.

FAQ

Asked first, every time.

Don't see yours here? Send us the question — a principal engineer will reply within 24 hours.

SikuliX is for desktop applications, legacy systems, and any UI without DOM access. Selenium is for web apps with HTML DOM. SikuliX tests what Selenium cannot.

Yes, with proper setup — consistent screen resolution, tolerance tuning, and region-based matching. We configure headless VMs for reliable CI/CD execution.

Yes. SikuliX integrates Tesseract OCR for text recognition — read, verify, and interact with text-based UI elements.

Yes. SikuliX is cross-platform — the same scripts run on Windows, macOS, and Linux without modification.

SikuliX bypasses the DOM entirely. It uses OpenCV-powered image recognition to scan the screen pixel-by-pixel, identifying buttons, icons, or input fields visually, allowing us to automate complex Flash, Canvas, or Citrix applications seamlessly.

Yes. When standard automation tools fail because legacy UI elements aren't identifiable via code, we use SikuliX to visually click through complex SAP workflows or legacy Oracle Forms just as a human operator would.

Image-based testing is notoriously brittle. We mitigate this by lowering the similarity threshold (`pattern.similar(0.7)`), avoiding full-screen coordinates, and anchoring interactions relative to stable, unchanging visual landmarks on the screen.

SikuliX requires an active GUI to capture pixels. In headless Linux CI/CD environments, we utilize Xvfb (X virtual framebuffer) to simulate a physical display, allowing SikuliX to execute image recognition testing flawlessly on servers.

Absolutely. Because SikuliX only relies on what is visually rendered on the screen, it is the premier tool for automating tasks inside Citrix XenApp or RDP windows where the underlying application code is completely inaccessible.

We architect hybrid frameworks using Java. We use Selenium WebDriver to handle standard HTML DOM navigation and form filling, and instantly switch to SikuliX API calls to interact specifically with the embedded Canvas or Flash objects.
