One other question:
Is it good to mix 2 different things in one test case ?
"shows the helpful advice when failing" is one thing,
and the problematic CRLF handling another.

Does it make sense to simply create "really-modified" file to test the helpful advice ?

And may be another one witch test the CRLF handling, (may be)
