A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for automating processes using data driven pre-recorded transactions. A process server comprising process modeling tools creates workflows comprising activities linked together based on a set of rules. A test script server connected to one or more activities in a workflow receives requests from the one or more activities to automate an activity. A remote test script agent connected to the test script server receives instructions from the test script server to play back a robotic test script of the activity, wherein the robotic test script is driven by a set of input parameters obtained from recording the activity, and wherein the robotic test script interacts with an application under test to perform the activity as an automated task.
