I have quickly tested it and looks like asserts are not removed from unittest blocks in release builds, only from normal code. Which does not seem to be documented on dlang.org but was probably introduced exactly to prevent existing tests from breaking in release mode. I have just learned something new :)
I found this out too during the development of DUnit: https://github.com/nomad-software/dunit#notes
The asserts remain then the runtime just catches anything Throwable during unit test execution: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/blob/master/src/core/runtime.d#L389-L419
