Details:

it'd be helpful to highlight the line triggering the error, possibly opening
the file if it's not already open.

something could be borrowed from the way breakpoints are displayed, e.g., the
yellow arrow which moves with F10, indicating the next line to be evaluated.

currently it's manifested only in the CUI, e.g.:
error: Assert error.
error: called from
    myassert at line 44 column 5
    test_inputParser at line 48 column 5
