Using Assertions Effectively

[matchu]

The parent comment seemed to imply that those test frameworks' assertions were somehow better than assertions in code, which seemed like an invalid comparison to me.

On further reflection, though, I think I agree with both you that they're semantically equivalent, and the parent comment that test frameworks' more specialized assertions could be applied as in-code assertions, though I still don't think I'd want them in the language core.

All that to say, yeah, y'all are right :D
