Hi Guys!

Is there any way by which we can generate the keyboard event programmatically?

Hi,
I suppose you mean “press a specific button at the keyboard??”
I’m using the following code with success…

import java.awt.AWTException;
import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent
Robot robot;
            try {
                robot = new Robot();
                robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_F11);
                robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_F11);
            } catch (AWTException e) {
                LogManager.error(logger, "F11 key could not be pressed",e);
            }
