Regex

Hi,   I was trying to implement something similar to the following https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/scripting/regular-expressions.html   var regEx3 = /;(\r\n)+function/g; var...

Hi again,

 

Furthermore, looks like testcomplete has its own non native regex methods. So I was trying those but that did not take me anywhere either.

 

For example:

var testString = "agent_1d74901d5";
var testRegex = /\agent\_\a/;
var re = new RegExp(testRegex);
var rr = re.test(testString);

I dont understand why rr is false. Is that not how you would specify the regex?

 

thanks

aa

Hi aa1,

If you compare web pages, I recommend that you refer to the following article to learn more about the Web Comparison Checkpoint:

https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/checkpoints/web-comparison/about.html

This is a built-in TestComplete's feature that may help you.

 

If you are looking for something else, please take a look at the following article explaining how to use regular expressions:
