console.assert is not standardized at this point, nor is it part of the language. Additionally, the semantics are inappropriate for the required use cases.
To requote the relevant part from the linked thread: 1. AssertionError <: Error 2. assert(x === 12); // throws an AssertionError with a default error message 3. assert(x === 12, "twelve, supposedly") // throws an AssertionError with the given error message console.assert does not throw and its intent is not the same. The assert I'm referring to is related to Code Contracts. Therefore your reference is seemingly orthogonal. /Michael On Sun, Jan 13, 2019, 12:49 Cyril Auburtin <[email protected] wrote: > There's `console.assert` > > also check > https://github.com/michaelficarra/proposal-first-class-protocols/issues/27#issuecomment-386975099 > > > On Sun, Dec 16, 2018 at 10:01 PM Michael Haufe <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> Seven years ago there was discussion around standardizing "assert".
