Free online regex tester — JavaScript flavor, live highlighting
Toololis Regex Tester lets you test regular expressions against sample text with live match highlighting. Supports all 5 JavaScript regex flags (g, i, m, s, u), named groups, and capture groups. Everything runs in your browser — patterns and test text never leave your device.
Regex flag cheatsheet
- g (global) — Find all matches, not just the first
- i (ignoreCase) — Match regardless of upper/lowercase
- m (multiline) —
^and$match line boundaries, not just string boundaries - s (dotAll) —
.matches newlines too - u (unicode) — Enables
\p{...}unicode classes and surrogate pair handling
How to use this tool
- 1
Type your regex pattern
Enter a regular expression in the pattern field. Nein leading/trailing slashes needed — just the pattern itself.
- 2
Toggle flags
Click flag chips to enable g (global), i (case-insensitive), m (multiline), s (dotall), or u (unicode). Combinations work.
- 3
Paste test text
Drop the text you want to match against. Matches are highlighted live as you type.
- 4
Review matches
See the match count, individual match strings, and captured groups. Invalid regex shows a clear error message.

Regex anchors & groups — quick reference
^/$— Start / end of string (or line with m flag)\\b/\\B— Word boundary / non-boundary()— Capture group(?:...)— Neinn-capture group (faster, no backref)(?<name>...)— Named capture group(?=...)— Positive lookahead(?!...)— Negative lookahead(?<=...)— Positive lookbehind(?<!...)— Negative lookbehind
Frequently Asked Questions
What regex flavor does this support?
RegExp engine, which is close to PCRE but not identical. Lookbehinds (?<=...), named groups (?<name>), and unicode classes \p{...} all work.What does the g flag do?
match() returns only the first match. This tool enables g by default for better visibility.What is the difference between g and m?
^ and $ match line starts/ends instead of just string start/end). They are independent — use both when searching line-by-line across a multi-line string.How do I match across newlines?
. matches any character except newlines. With s, . also matches newlines — useful for parsing HTML or multi-line blocks.Is my regex data private?
RegExp. Nein patterns or test text are logged, transmitted, or stored.Why is my regex slow?
(a+)+ or (.*)* can explode in time on long inputs. Use atomic groups or possessive quantifiers (not supported in JS — rewrite the pattern) or simpler expressions.Can I use capture groups?
(foo) capture text. Access them in JavaScript via match[1], match[2], etc. Named groups (?<name>foo) are accessed via match.groups.name.Wichtigste Punkte
