Method and system for unattended installation of guest operating system

1. A method for handling a guest operating system (GOS) behavior, the method comprising:

activating a first Virtual Machine (VM) on a computer system having a host OS;

launching a scripting system for capturing user actions in the first VM as they relate to screen images generated within the first VM, wherein the scripting system has a higher privilege level than the first VM;

generating an executable script from first VM video frames and from the captured user actions during a specified recording period; and

automatically performing operations on a GOS in a second VM by executing the script in the first VM and providing the user actions and the interaction between the user actions and the screen images to the GOS,

wherein the script includes the fragments as arguments or the recorded user actions as methods.

2. A system for handling a guest operating system (GOS) behavior, the system comprising:

a hardware computer system having a host operating system (OS);

an executable script that automatically performs operations on a GOS in a Virtual Machine and provides user actions to the GOS, wherein the script executes outside the Virtual Machine; and

a scripting system for generating the executable script, wherein the scripting system has a privilege level that is higher than a privilege level of the GOS and captures the user actions from screen images generated within the Virtual Machine,

wherein the executable script is generated based on the captured user actions and the interaction between the user actions and the screen images during a specified recording period,

wherein the scripting system captures GOS screen image fragments pointed to by the user, and the executable script includes the screen images as arguments or the recorded user actions as methods.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the scripting system captures GOS screen image fragments pointed to by the user in the screen images.

4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the user actions include any of gestures, voice commands, touchscreen operations, rotation, and change in orientation.

5. The system of claim 2 , wherein the computer system is any of a smartphone, a tablet, a notebook and a desktop computer.

6. The system of claim 2 , wherein the script executes in the host OS with host OS privileges.

7. The system of claim 2 , wherein the script executes in a different Virtual Machine.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the Virtual Machine is nested in the different Virtual Machine.

9. The system of claim 2 , wherein the user actions are captured on a different hardware computer system from the hardware computer system on which the script is executed.

10. The system of claim 2 , wherein the executable script detects screen image fragments in the GOS screen image content.

11. The system of claim 2 , wherein the executable script installs the GOS.

12. The system of claim 2 , wherein the executable script is generated by a virtualization system.

13. The system of 2 , wherein the virtualization system comprises:

a video output virtualization module; and

a keyboard/mouse virtualization module.

14. The system of claim 2 , wherein the external scripting system comprises:

a script engine module;

an image verification module; and

a common module.

15. The system of claim 2 , wherein the user actions include any of:

mouse moves;

mouse clicks;

mouse positioning;

context menu selection;

window activation;

windows toggling;

keyboard strokes; and

delays between the clicks and the strokes.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the mouse clicks invoke events, the keystrokes enter data, and the mouse moves control cursor positioning.

17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the delays are caused by the user waiting for a graphical entity to appear.

18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the generating of the executable script includes verification of a window image.

19. The system of claim 2 , further comprising testing the GOS by executing the script.

20. The system of claim 2 , wherein the screen image represents a portion of entire screen.

21. The system of claim 2 , wherein the screen image represents the entire screen.

22. A method for unattended installation of a guest operating system (GOS), the method comprising:

activating a first Virtual Machine (VM) on a computer system having a host OS;

installing a GOS in the VM using a script to automate the GOS installation, wherein the script is based on recorded user actions performed during an installation of a GOS installation in a second VM as they relate to screen images generated within the second VM and the interaction between the user actions and the screen images during a specified recording period pointed to by the user;

wherein the executable script includes the screen images as arguments or the recorded user actions as methods; and

wherein the script runs in an environment with a higher privilege level than the first VM.

23. A system for handling a guest operating system (GOS) behavior, the system comprising:

a hardware computer system having a host OS;

an executable script that automatically installs a GOS in a Virtual Machine and provides user actions to the GOS, wherein the script executes outside the Virtual Machine; and

a scripting system for generating the executable script, wherein the scripting system has a privilege level that is higher than a privilege level of the GOS and creates synthetic events from the captured user actions as they interact with screen images of the Virtual Machine during a specified recording period,

wherein the scripting system captures GOS active elements selected by the user, and the executable script includes the screen images as arguments or the captured user actions as methods.
