Universal UI testing based on image and text recognition
In order to implement text recognition, I needed to use another library, Tesseract. It is an optical character recognition engine made by Google. There is also a .NET wrapper for this library. I had to use a few tricks to properly match arbitrary text with a library that is best suited for digitized books, and cleverly use page segmentation methods. You will find how I used Tesseract in this C# class.

C# Project for work
I think OpenCV is probably not the right application for what you're trying to do. You might try Tesseract OCR. In my experience OCR can be great at recognition when it's based on a crisp screenshot (usually it starts to struggle with scanned/photographed images).

Tesseract OCR in C# imagepath problem
I'm playing around creating a xamarin app which can take a picture and then recognize the text. The xamarin project is pretty much done. I've OCR part of the app is done in regular c# / .NET (not xamarin), specifically the Tesseract .NET wrapper from Charles Weld. But I've encountered an error which i don't entirely understand and can't seem to resolve.

Universal UI testing based on image and text recognition
I started looking for UI testing solutions for desktop applications. I quickly discarded expensive UI testing suites. WinAppDriver was very interesting, but one of the requirements was to add some kind of identifiers on every UI element that we wanted to interact with. This would have required a huge effort from the team.
