I want a regex which returns true when there is at least 5 characters et 2 digits. For that, I use a the lookahead (i. e. (?=...)
).
// this one works
let pwRegex = /(?=.{5,})(?=D*d{2})/;
let result = pwRegex.test("bana12");
console.log("result", result) // true
// this one won't
pwRegex = /(?=.{5,})(?=d{2})/;
result = pwRegex.test("bana12");
console.log("result", result) // false
