Executing scripts remotely is not what I need, since I want to<br>
have the code under test and the LDTP test in the same workstation,<br>
ideally developers should be able to run these LDTP tests in their<br>
workstations before a commit.<br>

Hudson X11 is similar to what I've read in Mago's wiki, the<br>
a11yservice.py // a11yclient.py are basically a way to send commands<br>
from one context to the other. The client is run in the Hudson context<br>
and in which context does the service run? xinit?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I created this for Mago project. Hudson runs as root user (atleast in Ubuntu). So, I need to create 2 different scripts, a11yservice.py will run as regular user and a11yclient.py will run as Hudson user.</div>

Do you see any possibility to run LDTP tests in xvfb? Is the a11y<br>
