Bypass Captchas in Selenium

Selenium is a widely used automation framework. Bypassing captchas involves:

  • Third-party solver APIs Use services like DeathByCaptcha or CapMonster.

  • Injecting the solved token Example for reCAPTCHA:

    driver.execute_script("document.getElementById('g-recaptcha-response').value = arguments[0];", token)
    
  • Mimicking user actions Move the mouse, type naturally, and pause between actions.

  • Headless detection avoidance Use undetected-chromedriver for Python or ChromeDriver with stealth options.
