I am trying to automate user interaction on a web application which is having embedded java applet in it. Need a tool that can spy the objects in the java applet in browser .

The plan is to use FEST - swig library or anything similar to automate the user interaction on the objects in the applet.

Also this web application opens only on IE browser.

Already I tried using IE webdeveloper, debug bar etc , but nothing is able to identify anything in the applet. As I tried, QTP is able to identify the elements in the applet very easy, but I require something other than QTP as its not a feasibly solution in my environment. Is there any open source tools that can support selenium to work with such in browser java applets.

If the Java applet is written to be accessible then you can use UIAutomaion (replacement for MSAA since Windows Vista) to automate it. Even if it is not 100% accessible, you may still be able to use UIAutomation. QTP likely uses MSAA or UIAutomation under the hood to drive it's non-web automation. There are a number of other solutions win32 automation that also use MSAA or UIAutomation that would probably work for you as well.
