What is Regex Tester?

A Regular Expression (Regex) is a sequence of characters that specifies a search pattern. They are incredibly powerful for string searching, parsing, and data validation, but notoriously difficult to write and debug. Our Regex Tester provides instant visual feedback, highlighting all pattern matches within your target text as you type.
