I want to convert a scanned grid view image into excel spreadsheet, and then test its content using some automation tool.

Conversion can be done through Optical Character Recognition system but how to test it?

Is there a tool that I can use to create and execute such tests?

Please give a more meaningful title. – dzieciou Sep 26 '12 at 9:06
If you export the spreadsheet to a comma- or tab-separated file, you can use almost anything to test it. – user246 Sep 26 '12 at 11:25
what exactly are you trying to test ? Are you testing the OCR or the part that puts it into Excel ? – Phil Kirkham Sep 26 '12 at 12:36

I'm not sure what it is that you wish to test.

On the assumption that you are looking to validate the contents of the resulting Excel spreadsheet, lots of tools can read the contents of a spreadsheet.

I use WinTask.
