With which symbol can I replace anyInt in "expected should equal("""anyInt - anyInt - anyInt""")"

Question

I want to check if a date has the format "yyyy-MM-dd". date should equal("""anyInt-anyInt-anyInt""").

With which symbol should I replace anyInt in java?

Answer 1

Regex: \\d{4}-\\d{2}-\\d{2}

\\d matches any digit (exactly one)

{x} is number of occurrences

\\d{4} => matches four digits

\\d{2} => matches two digits

etc.

\\d+ => matches unlimited number of digits (at least one)

\\d* => matches unlimited number of digits (zero or more)
