Ironically, I liked the idea of having more expressive assert statements - a discussion you brought up. But this requires either syntcatical analysis in the general case ( EE and assert magic ) some particular API ( Ben Finney ) or a somewhat restricted, but fully embedded, domain specific language ( Metatest ). Here is what I got after an hour of hacking and filtering assert.
