That's madness!

unittest {
    auto a = something();
    assert(a !is null);
     a.stuff(); // if a is null, this is meaningless
}

What you could do is:

unittest { assert(my test); }
unittest { assert(my other test); }
unittest {
  // complex test
}

It is a bit verbose, but you'd get all the results you want without
breaking cases like my first null assert one.
