  Description : Perl module for testing the contents of files

Test::File::Contents provides a set of routines useful to construct
tests that examine the content of files.

It can check for an exact match and for a regexp match against the file's
contents, but also if the file's contents do not match a string or a
regexp and whether a file matches or not a given md5sum.

Yes. Look at the file_contents_identical() subroutine.

No bonus points I fear. But maybe someone could work it out, the code 
doesn't seem that complicated.

Is that module able to test if the contents of a given file match the 
contents of another file? Bonus points if if shows a unified diff in 
case of mismatch.

That would be useful for dh-make-perl's test suite.
