Vista - Hook into running XAML window for unit testing gui ?

Hello all,

I would like to know how to hook into a running XAML window to unit test the
gui/events?
Are there some examples on getting the running object, and also invoking
events and/or controlling the UI via remote windows calls (a-la NUnitForms) ?

Thank you all!
Xaml looks great so far! (Jan 06 CTP, about to install Feb06 CTP).

Have a look at the System.Windows.Automation namespace[1] and this article[2]
to get started.

HTH,
