Description-en: Python 3 module for automating interactive applications
Pexpect is a pure Python 3 module for spawning child applications;
controlling them; and responding to expected patterns in their
output. Pexpect works like Don Libes' Expect. Pexpect allows your
script to spawn a child application and control it as if a human were
typing commands.
