Definition:

fn assert(bool check, str[] args...) -> ! {
    if check {
        true -> {}
        false -> { panic("Assertion failed: {args}") }
    }
}

Usage:

import { "std/assert" as assert }

test "passing test" {
    try assert.assert(2 + 2 == 4, "This test should pass")
}
test "failing test" {
    try assert.assert(2 + 2 == 5, "This test should fail")
}

Definition: ```nc fn assert(bool check, str[] args...) -> ! { if check { true -> {} false -> { panic("Assertion failed: {args}") } } } ``` Usage: ```nc import { "std/assert" as assert } test "passing test" { try assert.assert(2 + 2 == 4, "This test should pass") } test "failing test" { try assert.assert(2 + 2 == 5, "This test should fail") } ```
