I will most likely switch to a shorter syntax either already in 0.8.0 or in 0.9.0 which will look as follows:

assert(Person("robert")) {
   property { ::name }.toBe("robert")
}

And of course, you could add an alias for property, say p which makes it look like:

assert(Person("robert")) {
   p { ::name }.toBe("robert")
}

Or on one line

assert(Person("robert")).p { ::name }.toBe("robert")

And in case you prefer infix style:

assert(Person("robert")) p { ::name } toBe "robert"

Which comes close to the syntax of PowerAssert. If we could overload == in Kotlin I could provide something which resembles it even more.
