5 The MockFtpServer project provides a mock/dummy FTP server implementation that can be very
6 useful for testing of FTP client code. It can be configured to return custom data or reply
7 codes, to simulate either success or failure scenarios. Expected command invocations can
8 also be verified.
9
10 MockFtpServer is written in Java, and is ideally suited to testing Java code. But because
11 communication with the FTP server is across sockets and TCP/IP, it can be used to test FTP client
12 code written in any language.

14 The MockFtpServer project may one day provide multiple mock/dummy FTP server implementations,
15 at different levels of abstraction. Currently, however, StubFtpServer is the only one provided,
16 though others are being considered. StubFtpServer is a "stub" implementation of an FTP server.
17 See the "StubFtpServer Getting Started Guide" for more information.

19 See the FTP Protocol Spec (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0959.txt) for information about
20 FTP, commands, reply codes, etc..
