From I see in your logs the problem is not that HTTP::WebTest adds
additional chars (they are ok) but that HTTP::WebTest generates
incorrect Content-Type header. I'll investigate what's wrong with it.

Well, technically it is possible. You can add on_response hook with
some Perl code to store HTTP response on disk. On the other hand I
think you just using wrong tool and you'd better just use
LWP::UserAgent.

*Untested example*

plugins = ( ::Hooks )

test_name = download file
    url = ...
    on_response = {
        my $webtest = shift;
        open FILE, '> /path/to/file';
        print FILE $webtest->current_response->content;
        close FILE;
        []
    }
end_test
