How to Use Regex Tester

1. 1

   Enter your regex pattern

   Type a regular expression in the pattern field (e.g., `^[a-z0-9._%+-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,}$` for email). Use flags (g, i, m) as needed.

2. 2

   Input test strings to match against

   Paste or type multiple test strings in the input field. The tool will highlight all matches in real-time as you type.

3. 3

   View matches and capture groups

   See all matches highlighted with their exact positions. If your pattern has capture groups (parentheses), see the captured values listed separately.

4. 4

   Check regex explanation

   Read the auto-generated English explanation of what your regex does. This helps you debug patterns or learn regex syntax.

5. 5

   Test edge cases and iterate

   Add more test strings to cover edge cases (empty strings, special chars, long text). Refine your pattern until all cases pass.
