Abstract
The invention relates to a method for automated control of an Internet site, and to a use of the method for automation of repetitive control sequences for Internet accesses. According to the invention, a predeterminable image is searched at any desired position on the Internet site (IS) with the aid of an image recognition method, and a positive search result is output and a predeterminable message is sent to the input window (EF) if the predeterminable image is found on the Internet site (IS), or a negative search result is output if the predeterminable image is not found on the Internet site (IS). Use, for example, for automated testing of the operation of Internet sites.

A method for automated control of Internet sites (IS) having the following steps:
- search a predeterminable image (EF, SK, TX) at any desired position on a display of an Internet site (IS) with the aid of an image recognition method, with the image containing an input window (EF) for the Internet site (IS), and
- output a positive search result and send a predeterminable message to the input window (EF) if the predeterminable image (EF, SK, TX) corresponds to an image found on the Internet site (IS) within a predeterminable matching scale of the image recognition method, or output a negative search result if the predeterminable image (EF, SK, TX) is not found on the Internet site (IS).
