Regex (not)Contains & equals

[rugk]

We now have an assertContains, but what I still miss is a RegEx-version of that, so I can (use case:) do assertContainsRegEx "$archiveList" "^prefix1_" or so and I get check for prefix/suffixes etc.

Also this needs to be flexible enough to check the input per line or globally (RegEx stuff, as usual).

Previously I've just used an assertTrue and a grep for that. This works great.

[rugk]

Obviously, the same may be done for "equals".

[rolweber]

Shouldn't that just be assertMatches and assertNotMatches? Tests can put line start and line end markers into the regex to distinguish between contains, equals, startswith, and endswith.

[rugk]

There is no assertMatches in the code currently, it's also not documented in the Readme.

[rolweber]

Of course not. But there's no assertContainsRegEx either. I merely suggested a different name.

[rugk]

Yeah good name. Did misunderstood that…

This would be cool
