#Microsoft launched #ASSERT, an #opensource framework that simplifies #testing #AI behaviour for specific products or services. ASSERT uses natural-language descriptions to generate tests, score results, and record AI system paths, helping developers ensure their AI behaves as intended. This tool addresses the need for application-specific evaluations, complementing broader, more general evaluations. https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/02/new-microsoft-tool-lets-devs-spin-up-ai-behavior-tests-using-text-descriptions/?AIagents.at #AIagent #AI #ML #NLP #LLM #GenAI

🚀 New #C++26 feature: a user-friendly #assert macro! Because, obviously, developers have been desperately waiting for a fluffy, hand-holding version of assert to validate the runtime conditions of their existential dread. 🙄 So, next time your code implodes, at least it will do so with a polite apology. 🤦‍♂️

Careful when using Python's `assert` statement: Normally you can use parentheses to wrap long lines in Python without using backslashes. For `assert` it doesn't work:

assert(some_condition,
"Some description")

This never fails, as Python's `assert` seens an `assert statement with a tuple as condition. This really has to be written like this:

assert some_condition, \
"Some description"

I just fell into that trap for you.

Заменяем лишние if-проверки на assert для инвариантов кода в C/C++

Многие разработчики привыкли везде ставить if-проверки, даже для условий, гарантированных кодом. Зачем проверять то, что не может нарушиться? Такие проверки создают шум в коде и мусор в релизе. Assert решает эту проблему: документирует допущения и исчезает из финальной сборки. В статье покажу все преимущества assert'ов и предостерегу от подводных камней их использования.

Design by Contract на минималках: пишем assertions и улучшаем устойчивость на Go

Всем привет! Меня зовут Александр Иванов, я старший разработчик в YADRO, работаю над созданием средств управления элементами опорной сети и пишу на Go. Мы с командой разрабатываем продукт для сервисов сотовой связи — качество нашей работы влияет на пользовательский опыт тысяч людей. Поэтому часто мы ищем решения, как повысить устойчивость работы кода в продакшене. Об одном из таких решений я расскажу в этой статье. Design by Contract — подход к проектированию ПО, в котором взаимодействие компонентов системы основано на контрактах. Контракты описывают ожидания вызываемой и вызывающей функции и улучшают производительность кода.

Почему мы отказались от выражения «assert» в Python

В текущем проекте на Python мы практически полностью отказались от использования выражений с ключевым словом assert , и в этой статье я расскажу почему. Рассмотрим кейсы где использование выражений assert уместно, а где оно может выстрелить в ногу, и как этого избежать.

Эволюция Assert'a на примере тестирования вездехода из Звездных Войн

Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Михаил Палыга, я инженер в Блоке обеспечения и контроля качества выпуска изменений ПО в РСХБ‑Интех. На проекте для проверки данных мы пользуемся библиотекой AssertJ — Java библиотекой с открытым исходным кодом, используемой для написания гибких, содержательных и легко читаемых проверок в тестах Java. Мы любим использовать цепочки методов в других наших классах, поэтому данная библиотека органично вписалась в код наших тестов. Я опишу, как со временем менялся наш подход к проведению проверок данных и как менялись сами классы проверок. А чтобы было чуть проще и интересней — займемся тестированием чего‑нибудь из вселенной Звездных Войн. Например, протестируем имперский бронированный транспортный вездеход AT‑AT.

[Перевод] Soft Assertions в AssertJ

Бывало ли у вас такое, что тест падает на первом же assertion'e из десяти? Вы исправляете ошибку, запускаете тест снова, и он падает на втором assertion'e. И так десять раз. Выматывает, не так ли? На самом деле, есть способ ускорить этот процесс — использовать Soft Assertions. С их помощью тест выполнится полностью, даже если один или несколько assertion'ов упадут, и вы сразу увидите все ошибки. В новой статье от Михаила Поливахи, эксперта сообщества Spring АйО , вы узнаете, что такое Soft Assertions и как ими пользоваться.

Python's assert is in a very awkward position.

It's a concise keyword for a very common type of validation, but it gets ignored if Python is run in optimised mode. However no one really runs Python in optimised mode so there are arguments on both sides about whether or not you should use assert.

Personally I also dislike that it always throws an AssertionError, so you can't use custom error types for the sake of user friendliness.

Here's my #Limerick about some bad career advice I received back in the '70s. Fortunately, I ignored it.
(I'm using the #MicroPrompt #Assert.)

"You aren't assertive enough,"
Warned a lawyer. "You need to be tough
To make it in law.
You've a terrible flaw,
So nix law school. You lack the right stuff!"
