I have exactly the same scenario.
 I use Net::FTPServer. At the beginning of the test I create
configuration file, password
file that this server use and the root directory with all the files my
application will download.
I even didn't have to write my own server since this module already
has one - ftpd.pl.
Root access is not required.
