For Linux, there is Dogtail which uses the GNOME accessibility technology. I tried writing some tests for the GNOME calculator. You can use the standard Python unit test framework to write tests. Dogtail handles all communication with the user interface. All buttons and fields have their own names in GNOME and can be accessed from Python.

For Windows, there are tools like AutoIt that can automate a GUI application. However, on Linux I don't know anything; expect is the gold standard for automating command line applications like telnet, but does not handle graphical interfaces.
