Regular Expression Tester
Regular expressions are everywhere in our programs and configuration files. Testing them is far from obvious. Sometimes you even need to restart a program, wait for an external event or reboot a server to run a new test.
This tool makes it possible to simultaneously test a regular expression on five character strings and to immediately view the results, including the captured elements.
Regex Test
Regular expressions are not always interpreted in the same way by different systems. We use Perl-style regular expressions. If your system uses another style of regular expressions, the results of this test could be different from the results in your application.
The fast and easy regular expression test tool
With our tool, you can easily and rapidly test regular expressions. Five different target strings can be checked in one test.

Itz nice that you allow 5 strings…

Tested pattern: {"abd", "abef", "cd", "cef"}
Applied options: none
String 1: a
Result : false
String 2: av
Result : false
String 3: ab
Result : false
String 4: cef
Result : false
String 5: cd
Result : false
I’m not sure if your results are correct?

The results are correct. The pattern you tested would match a string like this one: xyz{"abd", "abef", "cd", "cef"}123

You igore blank input field – which is understandable, but means that I can’t check if an empty string also matches my reg. exp. (e.g., [0-9]{0,5}) for 0 to 5 digits instead of 1 to 5. Not hard by itself, but in combination with other patterns it can be useful to test that.

is there a tool that takes the string from me and the expected output after applying the Regular expression and it returns the regular expression itself ?
