>Other applications exist that can solve simple captchas

and if one of those worked on the captcha your site is using, you have
an ENTIRELY different bug to file..

as others have indicated, it's going to have to be disabled, stubbed,
or thrown into some kind of testing mode.
talk to your devs to find out what's possible, or if they tell you
which captcha is being used you could research it yourself

it's entirely possible that it has some kind of 'test mode' that can
be set with simple change to a .config file on your test website, that
will cause it to use the same value each time.

Also allow me to recommend you check out something called 'reCAPTCHA'
it's free, and it uses captcha type tech to do useful work (see
www.recaptcha.net) so you not only get protection from bots, but you
also help out with translating old books to electronic format.  they
also have a google group http://groups.google.com/group/recaptcha
where you could ask questions like if it has a 'test mode' of some
sort where it will just use the same image and answer, and not
actually bother with validation (and perhaps not load the recaptcha
back-end either)

You can invoke:  tester.leadto(knowledge.location), but unfortunately
tester.drink()   is a private method
