Abstract
Real user input targeting an application under test is blocked to prevent interference with the test. A shield window can be placed in front of an application under test window to intercept input destined for the application. Users can be notified of interception or a failed attempt to access the application. Furthermore, the shield window can be employed to provide feedback about the test including pointer movement and area focus.
