Programmatically comparing two MP4 (mpeg-4) videos

I'm working on software that will create MP4 videos using the MLT Framework. I need to create some unit tests for my processes that will compare a pre-testing creating video with the one that is created. I am using Python for the code. I need to ensure that the content of the videos is the same. What are the ways that I can programmatically compare the two videos?

One common metric for comparing video files is SSIM (structural similarity) -- videos with a high SSIM are likely to be "equal".

There are a number of tools available for calculating the SSIM of two video files; one such tool is available at: https://github.com/kahkeng/vqats
