Yes and No.

If the bug is on the backtrace, this works fine. An exception is
thrown, the backtrace is printed, and you inspect each one and you
find the wrong code, and fix it.

End of story.

If however you are doing, as is quite often done, constructing an
object, passing in some of the instance variables as parameters to the
constructor...

The use that triggers the exception, is quite likely _not_ to have the
buggy line on the backtrace. The buggy line was on the call graph
heading towards the constructor, not the use of that instance.

The duck's backside is not watertight, the duck sinks.

Hence my static_type_check set of utilities...

So in...

class MyObject

   def initialize( _a, _b, _c)
     @a = _a.quacks_like( :qwaak, :waddle, :swim)
     @b = _b.static_type_check String
     @c = _c.polymorphic_type_check MyBaseClass
   end

   # Without the checks above, the exceptions would be thrown here, with the buggyline nowhere on the backtrace!
   def my_use
      @a.qwaak( @b) + @c
   end
end

# Abstract base class for all the type check exceptions
class TypeCheckException  < Exception
end

# This exception is thrown in event of a method being invoked with an
# object of the wrong duck type.
class DuckTypingException < TypeCheckException
end

# This exception is thrown in event of a method being invoked with a
# parameter of of the wrong static type.
class StaticTypeException < TypeCheckException
end

# This exception is thrown in event of a method being invoked with a
# parameter of of the wrong polymorphic type.
class PolymorphicTypeException < TypeCheckException
end

class Object

    # Raise a DuckTypingException unless the object responds to all symbol.
    def quacks_like( *symbols)
       symbols.each do |symbol|
          raise DuckTypingException, "Duck typing error, expected this object to respond to :#{symbol}, but found class #{self.class}\n\t\t#{symbol.inspect}" unless
             respond_to? symbol
       end
    end

    def static_type_check_boolean
       raise StaticTypeException, "Static type check error, expected object to be a boolean, found '#{self.class}'
\t\t#{self.inspect}" unless
          (self.class == TrueClass) ||
          (self.class == FalseClass) ||
          (self.class == NilClass)
       self
    end


    def static_type_check( klass)
       raise StaticTypeException, "Static type check error, expected object to be exactly class '#{klass}', found '#{self.class}'\n\t\t#{self.inspect}" unless
          self.class == klass
       self
    end

    def static_type_check_each( klass)
       each do |object|
          object.static_type_check klass
       end
       self
    end

    def polymorphic_type_check_each( klass)
       each do |object|
          object.polymorphic_type_check klass
       end
       self
    end

    def polymorphic_type_check( klass)
       #    @@static_caller[caller[1]]+=1
       raise PolymorphicTypeException, "Polymorphic type check error, expected object to be a kind of '#{klass}', found '#{self.class}'\n\t\t#{self.inspect}" unless
          self.kind_of? klass
       self
    end

end
