How to capture text form the captcha & again copy that text & paste it
below the edit field.

Hi Rag,

As per my knowledge we cannot automate the captcha using QTP, What I would do for this scenario is,

1. I will put a input box where captcha is need and will give the value in the inputbox and proceed futher. Yes here manual intervention is required.

2. If i dont need to test the captach part, but it is just a test scenario where your flow/testcase will work only by giving captcha, I will ask the developer to turn off the captcha so that my test script will run by giving any value.

Regards

On the lines of point # 2, the captcha in the test environment may be tweaked to display a single pic at all times and hence a constant string may be required as input for the captcha.

I'll second Lokesh...

I think we can set a constant value with the help of developer ( in
the test environment) and then pass that value.

You CANNOT automate CAPTCHA. Not unless you have it coded such a way
that it will generate the same CAPTCHA text, or accept certain secret
word irrespective of the CAPTCHA text, such as 'admin' :)


The very purpose of CAPTCHA is to avoid automated updates. To make it
clearer, here's the full form of CAPTCHA : Completely Automated Public
Turing-test to tell Computers and Humans Apart.

Thanks,
