       This module provides a single subroutine, "bits_is()", for testing binary data.

       This module is quite similar to Test::BinaryData and Test::HexString in concept. The difference is that
       this module shows failure diagnostics in a different way, and has a slightly different calling style.
       Depending on the nature of the data you're working with, this module may be easier to work with.

       In particular, when you're doing a lot of bit twiddling, this module's diagnostic output may make it
       easier to diagnose failures. A typical failure diagnostic will look like this:

          The two pieces of binary data are not the same length (got 2, expected 3).
          Binary data begins differing at byte 1.
            Got:    01111000
            Expect: 01111001

       Note that the bytes are numbered starting from 0 in the diagnostic output.

       Test::Bits - Provides a bits_is() subroutine for testing binary data

         use Test::Bits;

         bits_is(
             $binary_data,
             [ 0b0010101, 0b01111100 ],
             'binary data contains expected values'
         );

       The "bits_is()" subroutine takes two required arguments and an optional test name.

       The first argument should be a plain scalar containing binary data. If it contains any UTF-8 characters
       an error will be thrown.

       The second argument should be an array reference of numbers from 0-255 representing the expected value of
       each byte in the first argument.

       This allows you write the numbers out in binary format (0bXXXXXXXX) for test cases if you wish to.
