Try java.awt.Robot

How to press keys

import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

Robot robot = new Robot();

static int keyInput[] = { KeyEvent.VK_SPACE };
robot.keyPress(keyInput[i]);

How to manipulate mouse

import java.awt.event.InputEvent;

robot.mouseMove(300, 550);//MOVING MOUSE
r.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK); // CLICKING MOUSE

InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK = left button

InputEvent.BUTTON2_MASK = middle button

InputEvent.BUTTON3_MASK = right button

Here's a good tutorial to start
