# Windows Desktop E2E Testing

End-to-end testing for Windows native desktop applications using **pywinauto** backed by Windows UI Automation (UIA). Covers WPF, WinForms, Win32/MFC, and Qt (5.x / 6.x) — with Qt-specific guidance as a dedicated section.

## When to Activate

- Writing or running E2E tests for a Windows native desktop application
- Setting up a desktop GUI test suite from scratch
- Diagnosing flaky or failing desktop automation tests
- Adding testability (AutomationId, accessible names) to an existing app
- Integrating desktop E2E into a CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions `windows-latest`)

### When NOT to Use

- Web applications → use `e2e-testing` skill (Playwright)
