Test.assertMessage not working on Side-Load

I have several assert statements throughout my app the first one being in the TimerHandler function:

function startUpdateTimer() {
    Test.assertMessage(updateTimer != null, "updateTimer uninitialized");

    var callBack = new Lang.Method(TimerHandler, :updateTimerCallback);
    updateTimer.start(callBack, CALLBACK_TIMER, true);

}

I have the using statement for the test module. This works during the simulator.

However when I side-load the prj onto my Vivoactive 4 I get the following warning:

Error: Symbol Not Found Error
Details: 'Failed invoking <symbol>'
Time: 2020-07-07T20:14:22Z
Part-Number: 006-B3224-00

    File: 'D:\Programming\garmin_dev\RefWatchPlus\source\UI\RefWatchView.mc'
    Line: 35
    Function: onShow

I have confirmed it is the Test.assertMessage function using System print statements. Additionally, the App works correctly when built for release and side-loaded.

Any guidance on this issue would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, you can't use the Test module on devices. It is only supported within the ConnectIQ simulator. If you try this, it will skip over the assert...

if (Toybox has :Test) {
    System.println("Toybox::Test exists");
    
    if (Toybox.Test has :assertMessage) {
        System.println("Toybox::Test::assertMessage exists");
    } else {
        System.println("Toybox::Test::assertMessage does not exist");
    }
} else {
    System.println("Toybox::Test does not exist");
}

Travis. Perfect. Thanks.
