Hi Caleb,

Two problems:
1. The selenium tests try to submit bad information but are stopped by
LiveValidation causing a test failure.

Perhaps we can set up the test to bypass javascript, maybe it's a good idea to
test LiveValidation too?
I don't think you can bypass/disable JavaScript in Selenium tests since
they depend on it. The user actions are simulated using JavaScript. I
think we should update the failing tests to take into account the
presence of LiveValidation. I'm wondering though how can we write
functional/integration tests for the scenario when the user has
JavaScript disabled.
2. Also selenium seems unable to solve the captcha. It wasn't a problem because
empty
captchas were accepted as long as there was no 'mandatory' constraint on the
captcha
field, fixed that.
Expecting this to start being a problem again:

Log in as Admin, set captcha to false, log out and then register?
Turn off captcha by default?
Since Selenium allows you to automate user actions, if you could write
an automated test that solves captchas then captchas wouldn't be useful
at all. I think you can only test, with Selenium, that the captcha is
displayed and that it cannot be bypassed with random answer (the chance
of guessing the answer should be low enough).

I'd like to hear your thoughts,
Caleb
