I ran into exactly the same problem with testing the validates_captcha plugin. My solution was to the :if clause e.g. validates_captcha :if => Proc.new {|u| ENV['RAILS_ENV'] != 'test'} That seems to work too. Ideally, I would really like to have a test case that really validates that the captcha itself works. I wonder what would be the easiest way to do that.
