&lt;br /&gt;
if it is a csv download then Selenium/Finesse scripts might be something you can try. For other ones you can build a process .&lt;br /&gt;
1. Use HTTP Query smart service &lt;br /&gt;
2.Execute the service call in loop for diffferent scenarios with known inputs for each scenario   and save the actual outputs for each scenario.&lt;br /&gt;
3.Compare the actual outputs with expected outputs .&lt;br /&gt;
4.The results can be stored in DB on a daily basis to build a report on top of these.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hope this helps !!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Regards,&lt;br /&gt;
Thoufiq.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
