I need to detect following error message
Error_in_Validating_Fields_Aggregated_Tax_Calc_and_Tax_Averaging_cannot_be_combined_on_the_same_Instance_
to make sure I'm getting correct message I have to make sure the error string contains
"Error", "Aggregate", "Tax_Averag ", "combin " in any order
How do you do it using non-native reguler expressions
Hi NisHera,
The following regular expression should work for you:
(?=.*Error)(?=.*Validating)(?=.*Tax_Averag)(?=.*combin).*
Hi Tanya,
Is this type of regex supported by the aqObject.CompareProperty method?
I tried
(?=.*project)(?=.*successfully).*
instead of previously used
(project)|(successfully).*(project)|(successfully)
and CompareProperty() failed to match with the
Project saved successfully
string.
Sample code (executed in the Evaluate dialog):
aqObject.CompareProperty("Project saved successfully", BuiltIn.cmpMatches, "(?=.*project)(?=.*successfully).*", False, BuiltIn.lmNone)
returns False instead of expected True
Been able to use this type of regex with CompareProperty and the like methods would be of great convenience, so I really hope that it was me who did something incorrect.
Could you please comment?
Hi Tanya,
Unfortunatly is does not work at all .
Even just following is not working
(?=.*combin).*
Also what dose "=" means ?
could not find equal sign in any regex litreture.
why do you use "?" which means 0 or 1 time? shouldn't be "+" which mean 1 or more times
Hi,
'?=' is a lookahead assertion. Unfortunately, it is not supported by all regex engines and this was the reason for my question of whether or not TestComplete supports it.
