These assertions can’t be uniquely identified if they are repeated in the same function
ASSERT(false);
ASSERT_NOT_REACHED();
And more importantly the same function can have the same assertion repeated in multiple places
void function()
{
int result = 0;
result += someFunction();
ASSERT(result > 0);
result += anotherFunction();
ASSERT(result > 0);
}
I am not saying we have a problem that we have to fix. I am just saying if we need to uniquely identify the bugs related to a specific assertion easily or we need to automate the linkage between the assertions and Bugzailla, we need tags for the assertions.
