IFS's documentation says outbound File Sender output (e.g. a CSV file) can be tested using Developer Studio, but doesn't explain how to actually verify the generated file content without setting up a real FTP/SFTP server as the target.

Answer

Route the File Sender to a deliberately non-existent folder as its target — the Application Message will fail (since the target folder doesn't exist), but the actual generated file content (after any transformers have been applied) is still viewable directly from within Application Messages. This lets you verify the file-generation output is correct without needing to stand up a real FTP/SFTP server just to test it.
