How can I test web forms that have recaptcha verifications before they can be submitted?

You can’t automate recaptcha verifications because that is a way to prevent automation.

I have this same issue. Is there a way to have a test case pause during execution, so I can manually handle the recaptcha, and then resume the test case?

hi,  
you can use Web.delay(30),  
in this 30 second you can put that captcha manually, after 30 seconds test case will run in automated mode.
