This is what testdriver [1] is supposed to help with. It only exposes a single method for issuing trusted click events [2] at the moment, but can be extended in vendor-specific ways to do more things. One could imagine hooking the click command up to the WebDriver session that already controls the browser-under-test, or by exposing a test-only web API that calls down to nsIWindowUtils’ synthetic click primitive (such as Marionette). I would be interested to hear more about what primitives for user input emulation are required.
