Getting the captcha displayed using Ruby Watir

[TCBlues]

Hi,
In my company we are thinking to use the reCaptcha in our registration
process on the website.
But the problem I see is when our Automated Tests run through the
website is necessary to get the captcha value to test the site
properly.
For Automation we are using Ruby. Is there any way to know the captcha
value in order to set the value automatically with Ruby Watir?

Thank you.

I'd suggest using a mock-object for that.

There is no way of knowing programatically what the captcha contains -
if there were, it would render the whole point of having it useless.

Instead, when testing, you replace the reCAPTCHA with something that
always returns 'true' (or whatever your application takes for a
correct answer.)
