It seems there exists a public domain record-and-playback tool called
XTM. This tool is discussed in the article "Experience in Testing the
Motif Interface," by Jason Su and Paul R. Ritter of Hewlett Packard,
IEEE Software, March 1991.

I have never actually seen this tool used.  If someone knows from where 
it can be obtained, please contact me as well.

Thanks
