Hi Vimal.

Ragav's links will help you understand captcha.

1 more way to test captchas is to seek a hidden control on the page visible in Test Environment only. This hidden control(text box) will display the appropriate captcha loaded from the DB.

I have tested this way successfully.

Thanks,
Siddiq
