If the package does not provide any .fasta file, and if you don't have any way to generate one, there are still several options. I tend to favor repurposing example data from other packages.

+1. I have been following the same practice for a while now, most recently by adding autopkgtest for provean [1]. By reusing packaged files we keep the overhead to minimum, with a downside of having to adapt in case the dependency changes. I did not encounter many of such changes, though.
