Automate package installs with Chef on Windows

I'm new to the Chef world, and I'm trying to come up with a solution to automate the installation of a few programs. I've found that installers can be run with the windows_package command, but that seems to only provide automation when the installer has a silent option. Is there a way to provide a series of clicks or a list of the buttons that should be pressed during the installation to automate those installers that do not have a silent mode.

There is nothing specifically in Chef for this. You would have to use a tool that does this like AutoIt. Chef can run AutoIt, but it doesn't implement those features itself.
