Since the assertion mechanism and Design-by-Contract are related concepts of self diagnosing software, I thought the above article might be of interest. It discusses some of the usefullness of assertions and how to exploit their power.
A follow on article this month discusses constructing a more powerful assertion macro to provide greater details.

Vaguely related note: we've just started using unit tests at work. They are brilliant - I am *much* happier about my code (and I thought I was happy about it before! ;-)
