Assertion specifies some condition that should be true during execution of a program. Assertion are of two types. pre assertion and post assertion.

Exception are the mild error condition that your program should encounter during a program run.for example divide by zero.

There is no concept called Assertion present in Java. Exception is the program error which arises due to uncontrolable condition. This condition can be arised automatically from to program code(Eg. DataBase Connectivity, File handling) or condition can be customized and customized exception can be thrown.
