I want to transit to next state automatically.

There are few choices a state machine developer can choose.

Implement an action and send appropriate event into a state machine which triggers a transition into a proper target state.
Define deferred event within a state and before sending an event send an event which will be deferred and thus causing next appropriate state transition when it is more convenient to handle that event.
Implement a triggerless transition which will automatically cause state transition into a next state when state has entry and its actions has been completed.
