Test Websites That Use reCAPTCHA

TestCafe does not implement mechanisms that circumvent CAPTCHA challenges. However, many CAPTCHA providers allow you to disable or simulate the verification in test environments.

This topic describes how to configure reCAPTCHA for TestCafe tests.

reCAPTCHA v3 #

Create a separate key for testing environments in the reCAPTCHA admin console. Then follow the instructions on the page to use this key when you build the site for testing.

Scores may not be accurate in testing environments as reCAPTCHA v3 relies on real traffic.

Alternatively, you can change the score threshold or disable the reCAPTCHA check in your development build.

reCAPTCHA v2 #

Use the following test keys that generate the No CAPTCHA response and pass all verification requests:

Site key: 6LeIxAcTAAAAAJcZVRqyHh71UMIEGNQ_MXjiZKhI
Secret key: 6LeIxAcTAAAAAGG-vFI1TnRWxMZNFuojJ4WifJWe

With these keys, the reCAPTCHA widget shows a warning message that indicates reCAPTCHA is not used for production traffic.
