The latest code in CVS also has a Post-Processor which can save samples to individual files. You could then use an external script to compare the files against known good samples. Or you could try and use the new MD5 assertion. Both of these are obviously only suitable where the content is known in advance. Delving into the Flash files would need some knowledge of their structure (is this published?) or a utility to extract the data. In theory, you could use the BeanShell sampler to write a Java code to read the flash content. Checking for the presence of certain strings in the Flash files might not be too hard to do, determining whether they behave properly is another matter entirely...
