I'd like to a log some information to a file/database every time assert is invoked. Is there a way to override assert or register some sort of callback function to do this, every time assert is invoked?

Try overload the AssertionError instead of assert. The original assertion error is available in exceptions module in python2 and builtins module in python3.

import exceptionsclass AssertionError:def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):print("Log me!")raise exceptions.AssertionError
