I required to test captcha feature. Is there any standards to test this feature? please suggest me any materials & tools.
Typically CAPTCHAs are implemented mostly as an afterthought. One of the things that I've seen is simply submitting the form by removing the CAPTCHA parameters and the "captcha required flag" altogether and the forms still seem to work. It's a very basic test but seems to work a lot. Also, sometimes replay might work. So as long as you have one right CAPTCHA you can replay the form multiple times with that same CAPTCHA and things do work.
