There are two different types of assertions, hard assert and soft assert:

• Hard assert: When a hard assert is used and the test case fails, the statements following the assert will not get executed and the test execution will abort.
• Soft assert: When a soft is used and the test case fails, the statements following the assert will  get executed and the test execution will pass.

The normal assert is a hard assert, which we have already seen. We will see how to use a soft assert next.
