I'm running Ubuntu 12.10 and I'm trying to install Netbeans 7.1(or later) I have the .sh file, but it won't install, the error appears here:

I don't have the libXtst.so.6 file in any directory, and I can't seem to find it anywhere to download. Has anyone else run into this problem, or know a work around?

command-line
This worked for me in Luna elementary OS
sudo apt-get install libxtst6:i386
Had that issue on Ubuntu 14.04, In my case I had also libXtst.so missing:
Could not open library 'libXtst.so': libXtst.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory
Make sure your symbolic link is pointing to proper file, cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu and list libXtst with:
ll |grep libXtst
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Oct 7 2016 libXtst.so.6 -> libXtst.so.6.1.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22880 Aug 16 2013 libXtst.so.6.1.0
Then just create proper symbolic link using:
sudo ln -s libXtst.so.6 libXtst.so
List again:
ll | grep libXtst
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Sep 20 10:23 libXtst -> libXtst.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Sep 20 10:23 libXtst.so -> libXtst.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Oct 7 2016 libXtst.so.6 -> libXtst.so.6.1.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22880 Aug 16 2013 libXtst.so.6.1.0
all set!
Your problem comes from the 32/64 bit version of your JDK/JRE... Your shared lib is searched for a 32 bit version.
Your default JDK is a 32 bit version. Try to install a 64 bit one by default and relaunch your `.sh file.
