As a software tester irrespective of manual or automation first thing we need to do before starting testing is to download the image/build from a specific location. This is a tedious task and takes significant time when build size is big. It will be really helpful in case we can automate this task so that the tester can start testing as soon as he/she wants without any delay.  I found this utility "flareget" (http://flareget.com/) very handy and useful in this regard. It has many useful features like scheduler, browser integration, multi-protocol support etc. ( http://flareget.com/features) We can schedule download at our preferred time with location to save the downloaded file, rest this tool will take care.
