currently there is an ocr.pm module in OS-autoinst that uses gocr, but
it is hardly used so that it is an optional part (because one openQA
machine is running on SLES which does not have gocr - at least not
outside home projects).

Also gocr autodetects various values over the whole image it is given,
so to get reliable results, one has to limit the OCRed area a bit, so
that only one font/size occurs in it.

Making better use of it in result checking, should only take some hours.
I can have a look at that tomorrow.
