The regex tests are formatted with blocks for readability. Previously,
they were formatted using folded style blocks (e.g. using `>`). Folded
blocks convert newlines into spaces. This is problematic for our regex,
since comments can only be terminated with a newline.
Effectively, anything after a comment will be commented out, making many
of the regex "silently pass".
This commit replaces them with scalar-style blocks (e.g. using `|`), which
treats newlines as significant, and thus correctly terminates comments
inside the regex.
Also fixes a regex test (`cat.thread_pool/10_basic.yaml`) that started
to fail after the block was fixed. The test was missing a `\s+` before
the closing newline.
The last response body gets now always stashed in the REST tests and can be retrieved via `$body`. This implies that not only expected values can be retrieved from the stashed values, but actual values as well.
Added support for regular expressions to `match` assertion, using `Pattern.COMMENTS` flag for better readability through new custom hamcrest matcher (adopted in do section as well). Functionality added through new feature called `regex` that needs to be mentioned in the skip sections whenever needed till all the runners support it.
Added also example tests for cat count api
