Rather than disabling these tests, teams are able to let CapSkip clear the challenge so the suite stays complete. + +Proxies is often necessary for real scraping, and CapSkip works with proxies without fuss. You can send traffic however your setup needs while and still solving CAPTCHAs locally, which keeps the footprint consistent across sessions. + +The v3 flavor takes a different tack: rather than a clickable challenge, it scores interactions silently.
