babel-plugin-espower

Babel plugin for power-assert that transforms assertion expressions (assert, assert.ok, assert.equal, etc.) at build time to produce detailed, tree-structured failure messages. Current stable version is 3.0.1 (for Babel 7+). Release cadence is low, driven by power-assert ecosystem updates. Key differentiator: unlike generic assertion libraries, it leverages Babel AST rewriting to embed variable values and expression results into assertion output, enabling richer debugging without runtime instrumentation. Compatible only with Babel 7; separate major versions exist for Babel 6 (2.x) and Babel 5 (1.x).
