There is additional solution i described here and it's to use CAPTCHA solver services API.

For example: http://www.deathbycaptcha.com. You implementing their API, passing them the CAPTCHA and get in return the text.

Example for implementation here.

If it were possible, what would be the point of CAPTCHA images? If you bypass it in Selenium, what's stopping an attacker doing that? This is not possible, for very good reasons.

Instead just disable CAPTCHA for your test environment.

You can not automate captcha, but there is some way to deal with captcha but for that human interaction is required.
There are two ways in which you can automate CAPTCHA

1.By break command
2.By input-box

For input box 

String captcha = selenium.getEval("prompt("Enter Captcha")");
selenium.type("fieldId", captcha);

If it's possible to "cheat" in your test environment I would have the expected value added to a hidden field and pull from there.
