Reg. How to escape captcha check in test accounts

Hi Team, 

 

We are having issues in our automation tests where when login into DropBox captcha comes. We need to escape this and make sure the captcha screen is not coming. Is there a way to disable the same? 

 

Appreciate your help.

  • Dropbox has an abuse detection system in place to detect and prevent automated logins to help protect our users. It uses a variety of factors to decide whether or not to display a CAPTCHA or verification challenge like this, so whether or not you see it, or exactly what you see, may vary over time.


    Dropbox doesn't provide a way to bypass these for testing, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
