> When serializing a record with a field that isn't specified in the schema, there should be some sort of warning or error. Otherwise, a simple typo in a field name can lead to silent loss of that field's data.
> Test case that should pass but currently fails:
> {noformat}
> {
>     my $schema = Avro::Schema->parse(<<EOJ);
>           {
>           "type": "record",
>           "name": "test",
>           "fields" : [
>           {"name": "a", "type": "long"}
>           ]
>           }
> EOJ
>     my $enc = '';
>     eval {
>         Avro::BinaryEncoder->encode(
>             schema => $schema,
>             data => { a => 27, b => 'foo' },
>             emit_cb => sub { $enc .= ${ $_[0] } },
>         );
>     };
>     isa_ok $@, 'Avro::BinaryEncoder::Error';
