At the moment I’m working on an application consisting of several form data which need to be transfered to a web service. I’m a nice guy so I gave the secret of selenium testing away to my customer. He really appreciated it and started creating his own tests. Here’s what he last sent to me:
So here’s the sixty-four thousand dollar question: what’s wrong here?
No answer so far ?
Well, how about this one:
CAPTCHAs and automated testing (e.g. with Selenium) don’t go together. CAPTCHAs are made to keep machines out and automated testing is done by machines ;-)
So this test has to fail since it has no clue what to fill into the captcha field.
Right you are!
You have won a washing machine ;-)
