Library "assert"
Production ready assertions and auto-reporting for unit testing pine scripts.

This library was born from the need to maintain production level stability and catch regressions / bugs early and fast. I hope this help you trust your pine scripts too. More libraries and tools on their way... please follow for more.

Please see the script for helpers to copy into your own scripts as well as examples at the bottom of the library unit testing itself.
