Description

Avro spec:

 To match, one of the following must hold:
...
  * both schemas are records with the same (unqualified) name

Following records are compatible. The `ReaderWriterCompatibilityChecker` reports name mismatch and an incompatibility. Similar test case with Java implementation passes.

WITHOUT_NAMESPACE_RECORD = parse(
    json.dumps(
        {
            "type": SchemaType.RECORD,
            "name": "Record1",
            "fields": [
                {
                    "name": "f1",
                    "type": "int",
                }
            ],
        },
    )
)
WITH_NAMESPACE_RECORD = parse(
    json.dumps(
        {
            "type": SchemaType.RECORD,
            "name": "ns.Record1",
            "fields": [
                {
                    "name": "f1",
                    "type": "int",
                }
            ],
        },
    )
)
