Acme-CPANModules-Assert
view release on metacpan or search on metacpan
assert(...) if DEBUG;
where "DEBUG" is a constant subroutine, declared using:
use constant DEBUG => 0;
or:
sub DEBUG() { 0 }
The perl compiler will optimize away and remove the code entirely when
"DEBUG" is false. But having to add "if DEBUG" to each assertion is
annoying and error-prone.
Nowadays, you have several alternatives to have a true, C-like
assertions. One technique is using Devel::Declare (e.g. PerlX::Assert).
Another technique is using B::CallChecker (e.g. Assert::Conditional).

FAQ
What is an Acme::CPANModules::* module?
An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list
of module names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to
categorize modules and document CPAN. See Acme::CPANModules for more
details.
What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module?
Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation,
you can install all the listed modules (entries) using cpanm-cpanmodules
script (from App::cpanm::cpanmodules distribution):
% cpanm-cpanmodules -n Assert
Alternatively you can use the cpanmodules CLI (from App::cpanmodules
distribution):
% cpanmodules ls-entries Assert | cpanm -n
or Acme::CM::Get:
% perl -MAcme::CM::Get=Assert -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n
or directly:
% perl -MAcme::CPANModules::Assert -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::Assert::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n
This Acme::CPANModules module also helps lcpan produce a more meaningful
result for "lcpan related-mods" command when it comes to finding related
modules for the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module. See
App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods for more details on how "related modules"
are found.

CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull
requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You
can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally
on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla,
Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two
other Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional
steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to
me.
