I downloaded this extension today and discovered it is nice and simple because it compares the files/MDF signature of your Joomla installation against a supplied list of files/MDF's within a text file. The drawback is the text file is dated 5 Feb 08 and a simple check at doc.joomla.org with the Joomla v1.5 release dates revealed v1.5 was released on 22 Jan and 1.5.1 released on 8 Feb. It therefore currently checks only v1.5; subsequent Joomla upgrades have different files. There are no MD5 lists at doc.joomla.org (the MD5 info only refers to a single number for the package itself) and you will need to use a standalone MD5 checker to generate a comparative text file after expanding an original full (not upgrade) ZIP Joomla package of the installed version.

It showed me almost every single file has some kind of error. But I don’t believe that.
I don’t think it’s working properly. Also it showed me some missing files which were not missing.

I tried to do a diagnostics for J1.5.8 site, but got a warning on literally every file! Can't believe that's right so I've a horrible feeling that this project is dead... which is an awful shame! Please bring it back!
P.S. I tried it on a fresh install of 1.5.8 too and had the same problem...

You should run this diagnostic test on every new Joomla installation. It will tell you if any files were corrupted or are missing during the ftp, the ftp log doesn't always show the missing or corrupted files. It can save you a lot of hair pulling when things don't work right because one little file somewhere is incomplete.

its not that hard to used this tool. Just upload the two(2) files into your joomla root and run it on your http://mysite/diagnostic.php
it will check the md5 hash value of each joomla default files and also verified the file header (_VALID_MOS) if not set that u get warning.
this is very useful, try it

I like this a lot.
One thing I did was change the file name from diagnostics.php to something else, or it could give someone a shopping list of files to try. Maybe even better to uninstall it when done or add some password protection.
