Regular expression not working?

[hunkel]

From the TS Idea Exchange, regular expression comparison type was introduced with TestSTand 2020. But I can't get this function to work as expected (tested in TestStand 2020 & 2021), is this function not working at all or am I doing something wrong here? The function used is CheckStrLimit, but this functions returns Failed even for the simplest expression.

Hi Hunkel,

You should make your Reg to meet your needs like only check last two characters, it should be ".*OK$" if input is "Yada yada yada, OK"

It seems TS use "match" not "search" to do the reg ~

ret = re.match(".*OK$","Yada yada yada, OK") #
print(ret.group())  # Yada yada yada, OK

ret = re.search("OK$","Yada yada yada, OK") #
print(ret.group())  # OK

 

 

Thanks,

Ricky
