SFTP Failure

Hi ,

I need to write a IF condition to know if a SFTP file transfer is successful or not and send email if its failed.

`sftp username@servername <<comm1
cd /directory
put filename
comm1
bye`

I use above commands for my connections. So please help me to write a IF statement.

I tried

SFTPTEST=`sftp username@servername <<comm1
cd /directory
put filename
comm1
bye`

if [ $SFTPTest eq 0];
then
echo "SFTP Successful"
else
echo "SFTP Failed"
fi

But this didnt work...
