How to handle recapcha on webdriverio?

Question

I am having an issue when running multiple tests one after another in webdriverio. When I am running multiple tests (for example a describe that contains multiple it) I am getting a recapcha that basically fails the test. Is there a way to overcome this?

Thanks

Answer 1

I assume you are using node. You would either have to detect the captcha and give it to the user (you), or find a way to not spam the website enough that it decides you are a robot. Note however, that that is hardly possible as the website obviously doesn't want bots if it uses ReCaptcha. There is no way to just bypass ReCaptcha without humans (yet)

Answer 2

I recently automated reCAPTCHA QA version (which just need click). Here is the code for same.

public async clickCheckbox(): Promise<void> {
const iframe = $('iframe[title="reCAPTCHA"]');

await iframe.click({ x: 30, y: 30 });

}
