assert(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7) assert — Checks if assertion is DescriptionPHP 5 and 7 PHP 7
assert() will check the given
Traditional assertions (PHP 5 and 7)
If the
Assertions should be used as a debugging feature only. You may
use them for sanity-checks that test for conditions that should
always be Assertions should not be used for normal runtime operations like input parameter checks. As a rule of thumb your code should always be able to work correctly if assertion checking is not activated. The behavior of assert() may be configured by assert_options() or by .ini-settings described in that functions manual page.
The assert_options() function and/or
assert() callbacks are particularly useful for building automated test suites because they allow you to easily capture the code passed to the assertion, along with information on where the assertion was made. While this information can be captured via other methods, using assertions makes it much faster and easier!
The callback function should accept three arguments. The first
argument will contain the file the assertion failed in. The
second argument will contain the line the assertion failed on and
the third argument will contain the expression that failed (if
any — literal values such as 1 or "two" will not be passed via
this argument). Users of PHP 5.4.8 and later may also provide a fourth
optional argument, which will contain the
Expectations (PHP 7 only)assert() is a language construct in PHP 7, allowing for the definition of expectations: assertions that take effect in development and testing environments, but are optimised away to have zero cost in production. While assert_options() can still be used to control behaviour as described above for backward compatibility reasons, PHP 7 only code should use the two new configuration directives to control the behaviour of assert() and not call assert_options().

Example #1 Handle a failed assertion with a custom handler
<?php
Example #2 Using a custom handler to print a description
<?php The above example will output: Assertion failed at test.php:21: 2 < 1 Assertion failed at test.php:22: 2 < 1: Two is less than one Expectations (PHP 7 only)Example #3 Expectations without a custom exception
<?php With zend.assertions set to 0, the above example will output: Hi! With zend.assertions set to 1 and assert.exception set to 0, the above example will output: Warning: assert(): assert(true == false) failed in - on line 2 Hi! With zend.assertions set to 1 and assert.exception set to 1, the above example will output: Fatal error: Uncaught AssertionError: assert(true == false) in -:2 Stack trace: #0 -(2): assert(false, 'assert(true == ...') #1 {main} thrown in - on line 2 Example #4 Expectations with a custom exception
