How do I download a file from FTP server in ReadyAPI?

As I post an API, a file gets generated in a remote server.

I can see the file connecting via FileZilla in port 22. I need to validate the content of this file. 

How do I do this?

Also, below script is giving false to me

import org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient
FTPClient client = new FTPClient();
client.connect(host);
boolean isSuccess = client.login(username, password);
log.info isSuccess

    Hello indraniria 

     

    Sorry I don't have specific example, but I have used a library to perform the tasks you describe that you could look into to see if it meets your needs...

    It is Jsch by JCraft

    http://www.jcraft.com/jsch/

     

    Download the .jar file and place in your installation .lib folder. 

    add "import com.jcraft.jsch.*;" import line to you groovy script test step to use features in examples.

     

    Their website has some java examples you can drop right into groovy script test steps.

    I used to execute commands on remote computers with this library successfully and relatively painless.

     

    Regards,

    Todd

    Hey indraniria 

     

     

    I think someone posted an equivalent issue a while back.  I'll have a look and see if I can find the post and the solution - but it wont be today - I am flat out with work today.

     

    Cheers,
