if (FALSE) {
#without duplicate => no error, continue the pipeline
tibble(subjid=c(1:10)) %>% assert_no_duplicate() %>% nrow()

#with duplicate => throws an error
tibble(subjid=c(1:10, 1:2)) %>% assert_no_duplicate() %>% nrow()

#By groups
df = tibble(subjid=rep(1:10, 4), visit=rep(c("V1", "V2"), 2, each=10), 
            group=rep(c("A", "B"), each=20))
df %>% assert_no_duplicate() #error
df %>% assert_no_duplicate(by=c(visit, group)) #no error
