Username password Macro or tool

Question

I write extensions for a program. The program has a username/password dialogue box. There is no "remember my password" option. The task of entering this information is quite cumbersome and breaks my development workflow.

Is there a tool that will automate this process?

Ideally, I would like the tool to launch the program > type in my username and password > click Ok to login.

A subset of this functionality would be better than nothing. I have visual studio 2010.

The program is a custom medical application with very little documentation.

AutoHotKey will be perfect for this. I actually already use it for something similar.

Your script will look something like this:

;This macro will run when you press Windows + a
#a::
Run, [program executable]
;You may need to uncomment this pause and set it if your program doesn't start instantly.
;pause [number in milliseconds]
Send [username]{tab}[password]{enter}
return

Note that this may be different if your dialog box is strange, I've set this up for the standard username/password dialog.
