NAME
automationmodetool – Manage UI automation security preferences.
SYNOPSIS
automationmodetool -enable-automationmode-without-authentication
automationmodetool -disable-automationmode-without-authentication
DESCRIPTION
automationmodetool can be used to configure a device such that Automation
Mode for UI testing can be enabled without user authentication. This is
useful for configuring machines in continuous integration (CI) environments
as well as those in labs where the active users do not have administrator
privileges. Running the tool for this purpose requires an administrator to
authenticate in the shell. If no argument is passed, the tool prints the
current status of Automation Mode (enabled or disabled), the authentication
configuration (required or not), and then exits.
