We are using WebNMS 4.7.0 for a new project, for which we have used Swing as a frontend and mysql as backend.
Middleware is RMI based. I want to automate the testing of this swing based application. Is it possible to use any of the
Selenium tools?

If yes, please do let me know.

Thanks in Advance.

In theory it would be possible to test Swing applications using Selenium, provided you code the proper libraries to do so (javascript-java communication). But Selenium is not intended for this kind of testing as is (only DHTML, AJAX...).
Also look at tools like Abbot or commercial tools.

Cheers.
